Musical comedy is the cult of life in constant spring. A nonconformist luxury that seeks to communicate with everyone and with each one in particular. The energetic conjugation that manages to create the indefinable capable of triggering the dream.
Carmen Miranda and Josephine Baker have in common a talent that feeds on humanity, a wild authenticity that is life itself. It is from these two phenomena of the show that the choreographer seeks to create dreamlike material, to build a celebration marked by the tireless need to be present and, at the same time, to reflect and give shape to small intimacies, giving them doubt, despair, emptiness and sadness that feed and give dimension to the reason for being on stage.
