Inferno – Contemporary Dance Performance

Hell in Western culture is the place of the imagination that more than any other has offered preachers, illustrators, painters, sculptors, storytellers, directors, musicians. It is the place of atonement for moral and material sins where the wicked are punished and good triumphs over evil. It is the place of subversion and chaos in the representation of which everything can coexist. But today a representation of evil as the reign of a sulphurous devil with a tail, horns and pitchfork would be hardly credible. Hell is here, and it looks a lot like Heaven. It is what drives us to make every effort to appear better every moment, more just, more beautiful, stronger, more attractive, more responsible, more humble, more intelligent, which pushes us to compete for moral, social, economic, emotional gratifications. .

Hence the idea of ​​«Inferno», a tragedy in the form of a comedy – seductive, pleasant, engaging, brilliant and amusing – about the intrusiveness of the ego.
