MONJOUR

creation Silvia Gribaudi
residency in collaboration with Torinodanza Festival 2021 

MONJOUR is the new performance by Silvia Gribaudi. The work includes choreographic practices on the relationship between body and comedy, between drawings and aesthetics in the relationship between performers and audience. The performers are researching to convey the poetic sense of being a clown: in Silvia Gribaudi’s artistic vision the performers are always ready to offer themselves in virtuosity, with constant generosity and in the need to exist through the relationship with the audience. The mise-en-scène, lit up by artist Francesca Ghermandi’s pop drawings, marks the boundaries between artists and director, disrupts orders and roles, becomes a scream that focuses on human fragility as a strong point, fallibility as revolutionary power, the unexpected as the possibility of seeing beyond the limits.
