Donka (Una carta a Txèkhov)
Daniele Finzi Pasca
CircusLa màgia del circ més espectacular Daniele Finzi Pasca, un dels creadors més destacats del panorama del circ mundial, ens convida a introduir-nos en l’espectacularitat del món del circ mitjançant un homenatge visual, màgic i memorable a Txèkhov. Donka, en rus, és una campaneta que tenen les canyes de pescar per avisar si un peix ha mossegat l’ham. L’escriptor rus acostumava a relaxar-se i a inspirar-se tot pescant. Fascinat per aquesta imatge, Finzi Pasca, creador d’espectacles com Corteo del Cirque du Soleil (2003) o la cerimònia de cloenda dels Jocs Olímpics d’Hivern de Torí (2006), va endinsar-se en els diaris i els escrits de Txèkhov a la recerca del seu nou espectacle. El resultat és Donka, un poema visual creat a partir d’objectes i cossos suspesos a l’aire. Un espectacle que manté un equilibri delicat entre dansa, acrobàcia i la resta de disciplines característiques del circ.
