This show is for over 18's only. ID may be required at the door.
Description

Karrasekare is the latest work by Igor x Moreno and is inspired by the pagan carnival traditions from Sardinia and the Basque Country. The work draws from pre-christian rituals: it looks back at a time when the beginning of Spring was not called carnival*, yet; a time in which the Spring Solstice called for a celebration of the flesh.

Karrasekare revisits the past to enter the future. It uses traditional rhythms – the same ones that have accompanied our dances for centuries – to create free, fluid and queer identities. It unroots these pagan rituals from their original context – the streets, the squares – to re-imagine them inside a black box.
