THE WORK
With the Red Nose, the smallest mask in the world, we are able to get in touch and experience that specific "state of being", in which the performer consciously explores personal weaknesses, contradictions and naivety, transforming them into 'strengths' .
The Red Nose mask, at this profoundly fundamental level, allow for a state of being “without doing”, whereby letting go of all intentions, one is able to touch the richness of “emptiness'” (le bide) that induces the performer to experience the power of their presence while deeply exploring their individuality and unique folly.
Regardless of each participant's personal artistic journey, this experience with the Red Nose Mask is fundamental to anyone because it informs participants with an unforgettably profound state of freedom and authenticity in front of an audience.
....... participants must accept to explore the vulnerability that the smallest mask in the world brings out...stripped bare for all to see!
PROGRAM
The work, is grounded in movement-based theatre and it focus on the exploration and analysis of the physical and emotional world of each participant. The aim of this journey is for participants to discover their own unique "Red Nose body" with a specific tempo, attitudes and emotions while developing their own poetic world.
This process leads to the birth of a very personal "clown" with a unique state of perception of reality that combines the research-rigor of an adult with the creative, naive-play of a child.
