Un Poyo Rojo

A stage piece by Poyo Rojo in which Alfonso Barón and Luciano Rosso combine dance, acrobatics and comedy through body language, with allusions to sport and sexuality.

The piece places two performers, Alfonso Barón and Luciano Rosso, on a stage where the body is the main resource. It crosses dance with sport and sexuality, and relies on gesture and movement to examine how far contemporary choreographic language can go and what readings it allows.

The tone is provocative and humorous: the work invites audiences to laugh at themselves and, at the same time, to recognise all the facets that make us who we are. Acrobatics and comedy alternate in a piece that plays with kitsch and cliché, and that shows a wide range of physical and emotional capabilities.

Choreography is by Nicolás Poggi, Luciano Rosso and Alfonso Barón. Direction and lighting design are by Hermes Gaido, and the production is signed by Poyo Rojo together with T4, with Maxime Seugé and Jonathan Zak. The show is staged at the Teatro Infanta Isabel, in Madrid.
