Homo confortus is an explosive dance fresco, a surreal fiction that invites the public to take a journey through history, to experience all its beauty, ugliness, recurrences and its ruptures. Structured around the concept of homo-comfort, it uses vast living tableaus to explore the cycles of human experience by appropriating compelling current themes, in all their ambiguities!
The work revolves around a group of apprentice revolutionaries, armed with poetry and biting humour, who question modern individualism and imagine a utopian society where solidarity and mutual aid prevail over the pursuit of convenience. A daring choreographic work that promises to defy expectations.
