Ciclo de Magia: Lo Que No Vemos - Javi Rufo & Miguelé

An auteur magic cycle in which Javi Rufo and Miguelé present two distinct but connected shows centred on what cannot be seen: fears, bonds, perception and gut feelings.

Lo que no vemos brings together two different magic shows, conceived as an auteur artistic project. Javi Rufo writes and directs the whole. His show, Vértigo, deals with everything that can make us lose our balance: fears, bonds with other people, chance, and the way others see us and the way we see ourselves.

Penumbra is Miguelé's show, the work of a blind magician who starts from a different question: what happens when one stops depending on sight and begins to attend to other ways of perceiving reality. The two productions answer each other, so that some questions raised in one echo in the other. Magic works here as a language rather than a subject: first there is something to tell, and then the device that makes it possible is sought.

The Pequeño Teatro Gran Vía, on Madrid's Gran Vía, is a venue that mainly programmes stand-up and comedy, and which is now hosting this magic cycle. The two shows can be seen separately, although their proposal is completed when seen together.
