COCO DANZA | Being Human Being

About the piece

It’s not about a place, it’s not about a time, it’s not about history or the future, it’s not about what you have or don’t have. Emotions, feelings, sensations, memories, nostalgia, moments, moments, moments, it’s what you are left with… in your last moments. It’s about being human. We find 6 dancers on stage who go through a series of interactions, and go around the space playing with objects, clothing, gestures, looks, and actions. During the piece they develop different relationships between them, and explore from the everyday to the abstract of behavior as humans.

Creative, which has been producing professional experiences for local artists since

2013, COCO opts for a workshop-platform model, which combines space for training,
