La Veronal Universe
La Veronal Universe workshop proposes an introduction to our imaginary and to our
dissociated and mechanical movement that has as well lots of theatricality in it.
The different proposals we will work on, are based on being able to create, improvise and
learn small movement cells and choreographic material. We wish to give the participants a
new way to immerse themselves in our universe to continue discovering within it the infinite
ways to move and express themselves with the body, music and space.
