CYBER WORLD OF THE FUTURE
Atlantis is a show made in a cyberpunk style loosely inspired by MadMax with a distinct sci-fi profile. The protagonists of the show, made on a stage suspended over the water, seem oppressed by a futuristic and hypertechnological world and appear to be engaged in a frantic attempt to escape from what makes them feel trapped in an almost parallel reality.
Performers, dancers and acrobats, interact with graphics on a backdrop: their performing arts, deftly combined with shadow tricks, futuristic buildings and urban settings, faces and three-dimensional geometric figures, accompany viewers on a journey through a distopian future.
Through the movements of contemporary dance and acrobatics of gymnastics, the artists narrate the difficulties of adapting to a hypertechnological world while maintaning their own identity of expression.
The choice to stage this show on water makes the atmosphere even more evocative and surreal. The performers, in fact, use this element as a real stage component, entering and exiting the water in a kind of ascent towards the surface, intended as a conquest of freedom from the sense of oppression of a world now almost entirely cybernetic.
Atlantis is a modern show, innovative both in its unfolding and in the message it seeks to convey.
Atlantis is a show that revolutionises the perception of reality and brings with it engaging emotions and intensive reflections on the influence technology can have on the future of a world that stops to be on a human scale.
