Atlas (or before arriving in barataria) - T01512237438London Premiere. [Mal Pelo] is respected internationally for its refreshing, surreal choreographic approach resulting in intensely physical dance. Taking as references books and films inspired by Cervantes’ masterpiece Don Quixote, Pep Ramis and María Muñoz use the central idea of a shared journey to nowhere as a setting for a powerful enquiry into the relationship between two men. Played by Ramis and Jordi Casanovas, one is haughty, self-assured and elegant; the other bare-foot, casual and compliant. Echoing the relationship of Quixote and his side-kick Sancho Panza, Atlas is a universe for two where projected images, movement and words interact in a poignant study of contrasting but interdependent personalities.Choreographer Mal Pelo. | |

Bach - T0455209761UK Premiere. María Muñoz, one of the co-founders of Mal Pelo, is without doubt one of the most charismatic performers dancing today. In her solo work, Bach, the first of two programmes from this popular Catalan company, the Well-tempered Clavier is the starting point for an exploration of pure movement. Muñoz responds to her favourite Preludes and Fugues with a performance in which her commanding yet playful presence as a dancer is matched by the immediacy of her choreography.Choreographer Maria Munoz. | |

An (el Silenci) - T02121322007Mal Pelo return to The Place under the direction of Pep Ramis, Maria Munoz and Andres Corchero. An (el Silenci) combines dance, text, video and live music in a work that is delicate, bare and full of contrasts and surprises. It is based on the structure of the poem Visite by John Cocteau from the book Discours de Grand Sommeil and embodies Mal Pelo's unique brand of theatricality. An (el silenci) is a game between the members of the group who can't remember how or why they came to be where they are. With original live music performed by composer [Steve Noble] and musician Alex Ward.Director Pep Ramis. | |
