Juan Domínguez wishes to suspend events and create a time interval in which to integrate his past into his future. This work is a formulation of his visions and his desire to meet the unknown through language. Domínguez had not worked on his own for 14 years. At that time, the public would read out the proposed choreography of his works from a text on cards. Now, he will speak of himself generating a self-portrait in which he quotes some of his friends and himself. Juan Domínguez, one of the choreographers of reference in Spain, presents his new solo, always mysterious, straddling between genres, looking for new ways of doing which do not condemn us to be only one part of the show.
