The consecrated choreographer Victor Hugo Pontes will present at the Cine-Teatro Louletano, next Saturday, September 29, at 9.30 pm, the creation of a dance "If you ever need my life, come and take it", in absolute debut to the south of this show based on the work "The Gaivota", of Anton Tchekhov.
The choreographer's challenge is to explore the text of "The Seagull" as a starting point, since it is, among many other things, a succession of attempts at creation and existence. The reflection on the creative act is one of the strongest points of this piece of Chekhov and one of the most interesting to Victor Hugo Bridges.
According to the choreographer, there is the composition of plots from banal events, the drawing of the characters as ordinary human beings and the play of the creative act, in a kind of avant la lèttre theater-within-the-theater. N '"The Seagull", as in "If ever you need my life, come and take it," the trivial becomes tragic, ordinary life becomes creation.
The price of tickets is 10 euros, going to 8 euros for those over 65 and under 30 years. The Friend Card is applicable to this event. The show has a duration of approximately 105 minutes (with break) and is aimed at people over 12 years old, and has free entry, upon availability of the room, to young people who are 18 years old or who are still 18 years old at present year under the project "És Cultura 18!".
