After my experience in circus school, I decided to embark on a creative adventure that would break with conventions. That moved me to compose 326 MORMURs, an author’s circus show<\/a>, featuring a duel between the last man on Earth and a cactus. The choice of a Western theme was not a coincidence but a conscious expression of the desire to challenge the established expectations in the world of circus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The superhero in the circus, a clich\u00e9 I always wanted to avoid <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

During my time in circus school, I realized that there was a tendency to portray artists as invincible superheroes capable of incredible feats. I felt that this idealized vision of human beings as superheroes didn’t align with my own perspective. So, I decided to explore the figure of the anti-hero, someone imperfect, full of contradictions and internal struggles. The Western genre offered precisely that: complex and dark characters fighting to find their place in a hostile world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The metaphor of the duel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In “326 MORMURs”, the duel between the last man on Earth and a cactus becomes a powerful metaphor for the internal struggle we all face. The cactus, symbolizing resilience and adaptation, represents the challenges and obstacles we encounter in our daily lives. Through this unique confrontation, I aimed to challenge the notion that circus always has to present artists as undisputed winners. Instead, I wanted to show vulnerability and the constant struggle that defines us as human beings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Contemplation, a space for reflection <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Similar to the anti-heroes in classic spaghetti Westerns like “Pale Rider,” I wanted to use the stage as a space to propose new ways of seeing the world, where the audience contemplates without impositions. I embrace the idea that the stage is a platform to convey messages and challenge established norms. Through “326 MORMURs,” I sought to inspire the audience to question conventional expectations and consider new perspectives. I wanted to foster a dialogue about humanity, vulnerability, and acceptance of our imperfections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hope to have achieved my goals with “326 MORMURs.” If you ever have the opportunity to witness this show, I would love to hear your opinion. I value your perspectives and reflections, as together we can enrich the dialogue and explore new forms of expression in the world of circus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you for joining me on this journey and being open to new perspectives!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
