Choreography: Sofia Nappi

Dancers: Paolo Piancastelli, Adriano Popolo Rubbio

Last residency for the new Komoco production “The Fridas”. The inspiration comes from Frida Kahlo's painting The Two Fridas, and it explores the complex theme of human identity through a relationship of complicity and contrast between two dancers. However, the relationship between the two characters on stage goes beyond simple dualism. Through gestures that reveal intimacy and vulnerability, challenging conventions of masculinity, the dancers move through emotional states and become an expressive vehicle for the thousands of facets contained within each individual.
