"Il Corso" is based on texts by the Nobel winner Pablo Neruda. His texts provide a theatrical and poetical quality one rarely finds in this kind of performance, made for large open spaces and a large audience. At the same time, the performance offers breakneck acrobatics, amazing images and advanced use of pyrotechnics leaving us with our chins to our chests after moving from the poetic beginning to a hectic, acrobatic and fire bursting finale.
