SapiensRabia
A guest choreography by Lisi Estaras for the Ballet Contemporaneo del Teatro San Martin, Argentina.
The body speaks, energetic and extreme, in an undefined landscape where a group of people try to communicate via a new expressive language. SapienRabia is a poetic, visceral and sensual universe where the encounter with the other questions our individuality, makes us mutate and re-create ourselves.
Human solitude, euphoria and empathy are some of the issues that these sapiens experience. Does the return to our primary and instinctive behavior, dehumanizes us, does it not make us more human?
