Titizé - A Venetian Dream

The new acrobatic show of Teatro Goldoni in Venice written and directed by Daniele Finzi Pasca combines the language of Commedia dell'Arte with fascinating scenic machines, inventing a new visual aesthetic, enriched by multidisciplinary performers in ethereal universes where wonder is sometimes naive, sometimes ingenious, other times surreal.

Reflections in the water, the diaphanousness of clouds when are low, the iconic masquerade game where we hide ourselves in order to reveal and  unveil ourselves: three magical movements that magicians and shamans know and pass on.
There will be the night and its madness, the charlatans of clowns, objects that will levitate, acrobats that will fly, real and surreal rain and a continuous recreation of impossible balances. There will be traditional characters that will be multiplied, split, disassembled and rebuilt in a kaleidoscopic game. There will be Venice with her splendor, her atmosphere, her poetry and the mysteries that inhabit her.
