Circus that humorously blurs the boundaries between reality and fantasy

Déjà vu tells us about the distance between a person and his dreams, about what he is and what he would like to be. Very ambitious dreams that awaken his airs of greatness but that at the same time are impossible, undermining his spirit.

A visual show, without dialogue, where the borders between reality and fantasy are blurred in a story with a touch of melancholy and with a stage space that plays with the extreme disproportion of measures.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________

My creations start from an inner search: from my successes, from my fears, anxieties, delusions... A choice that mimics the self with my loved ones. An emotional trilogy, my father, my mother and my son, which corresponds to Rudo, Déjà vu and Maña and articulates the past and the present.
It began with Rudo. Rudo is my father, a farmer for half his life and a builder for the other half. A show that sets the toughness of a craft against the tenderness of a father.
Maña is my son. It is the passing of knowledge from a grandfather to a grandson, the transformation from craftsman to artist.
And Déjà vu, who is my mother, a housewife during the post-war period. A dreamful, dreamy and a slightly quixotic show.
