LOOP is a love letter written by Aracaladanza to the stage machinery, in which dancers, machinists and electricians, together with curtains, spotlights, flight cases, backdrops, linoleum floors, stairs, carpets and mats, turn dance into a magical performance where the stage, its elements and those who work on it are the stars.
With a subtle sense of humor that permeates the entire show, the set design is the theatre space itself, where everything that happens ends up being discovered in such a way that the magic reveals its own tricks without ceasing to amaze.
Aracaladanza’s trademark, speaking of the language, work and mysteries of the stage itself, once again turns LOOP into a visual performance, floating free like a dream, using images to build what is forever about to happen under the spotlight.
“Their dance rigorously applies classical choreography techniques, but the ingenuity, the overflowing creativity and the skillful sense of performance, make it look novel, effective and tremendously entertaining for the whole audience.”
Omar Khan | El País
“Loop stands out for capturing and cradling our senses (…) It quickly connects with the audience’s curiosity and opens a door between fantasy and reality.”
Lidia López Teijeiro | El Pequeño Espectador,
“A great show full of wonder. Their plays are original, of the best artistic and technical standards that never cease to marvel. They have proved to be top performers yet again.”
Jesús Tirado | Ocho pistas
