This trio, interpreted by Frederico Augusto, Pedro Almeida and João Pereira, reveals the journey of "three men by a thread and their three hats without beaks" in the space of a real or illusory city .
“The starting point of this programme has been exploring the theme of mobility, access and diversity in the space of the city. Proposing different choreographic visions about the city and about urbanity and its poetics. As an active pole of dialogues and encounters where different identities meet together. Crossing the individual and the collective. The public and the private. The center and the periphery. The local and the global.”
This piece was created for Plural Companhia de Dança within the project DIVER.CIDADE with artistic direction by Rafael Alvarez. The triple bill programme presented: a duet – 'Dois rapazes e um som' (Two boys and a sound) choreographed by Filipe Pereira; a trio – 'Illudo in Vitro' choreographed by Jo da Silva; and a quintet - 'Patchwork' choreographed by João Pereira.
