A Invenção da Maldade

Marcelo Evelin conceived the choreography of this new creation as an experience both born from doubt and open to accidents, confronted by the  uprising of otherness set in resistance. While the piece was born from  memories and reading, it is not actually set in a specific imaginary. After taking inspiration from Tatsumi Hijikata for his previous show Dança Doente, Marcelo Evelin is here shifting away from a referential approach, to keep only an uncertain virtuoso demonstration, whether it concerns choreography, interpretation or musical technique, in favour of a dramaturgy of failure, in a complete imbalance and disharmony. Together  around a symbolic fire, dancers and objects become mingled or confront  one another, forming an undifferentiated primitive horde. From wounds to  healing, they initiate themselves together into pleasure and pain.

Meeting with literature

Collaboration between a choreographer and a writer can lead to the emergence of a large number of combinations. If sometimes the choreographer creates his dance around the work of an author, the writer can also choose dance as the subject of his text.
