ROOTS

"If one were to stop and listen to the work of roots, who could sleep?"
In all possible declinations of the word Roots, it evokes an action that intimately connects two or more elements and invokes multiple meanings: from rootedness in a place, to the relationship between the inside and the outside, from knowing one's own origins or those of a word, to nourishment and connection with Mother Earth.
The performance investigates precisely the dynamics inherent in this word and originates from the need to go deep into some of the laws that govern the body in order to know its sources, the desire to question the concepts of intimacy and relationship, and the decision to stop running away from one's roots. Through the relationship between the two protagonists and archetypes of the story, the two bodies merge almost to the point of creating one, and through subtle and deep listening they support each other to grow. They will rely on each other's arms, seek a firm but flexible rootedness and perform the most frightening "dance" in the world: the act of loving.
