Alegría

Alegría is een stemming, een sfeer. De voorstelling, waarvan de naam in het Spaans 'vreugde' betekent, heeft meerdere thema's. Macht en de overgang van macht in de loop van de tijd, de overgang van oude monarchieën naar moderne democratieën, ouderdom, jeugd. De personages van Alegría geven je een kijkje in hun leven. Het universum wordt gevormd door narren, minstrelen, bedelaars, oude aristocraten en kinderen. Daartussendoor lopen de clowns, die als enige figuren in staat zijn om zich aan het verloop van de tijd en de daarbij behorende sociale veranderingen te onttrekken.

Alegría - Optredens

  • Aerial High Bar

    Three high bars set more than 40 feet above the stage form the aerial playground for daring acrobats to fly to and from the arms of mighty catchers, suspended by their knees on a cradle swing. The astounding act culminates in an impressive plunge into the net.

  • Slangenmensen

    Those young but veteran performers bring the refined Mongolian art of contortion to life. While perched on a rotating table, they execute both impressive and imaginative feats of flexibility and balance. The fluid movements are masterful, as they manipulates into extraordinary sculpted forms.

  • Vuurmessendans

    Tribal and magical - this authentic ritual dance is performed with the pulsing rhythm of congo drums by artists weaving their baton-like fire knives around their entire body, from the feet to the palms to the mouth, in a seductively dangerous dance.

  • Vliegende man

    This virtuoso defies gravity and explanation in his powerful and graceful performance. Combining the elasticity of the bungee with the power of the gymnastic rings, the artist soars through the air while performing acrobatic feats. His awe-inspiring performance is a combination of incredible skill, agility and strength.

  • Handbalanceren

    Romantic and elegant, this act requires great strength and flexibility. Displaying impressive control, the artist balances on canes of various heights, slowly executing a series of astounding figures. The tallest cane is 1.9 metres high.

  • Jongleeract

    This performer combines rhythmic gymnastics, flexible contortion, deft juggling and graceful ballet into one act. Using silver hoops and beautiful silk ribbons, she dances and leaps across the stage as the music plays on.

  • Power Track

    An ethereal group of performers soar in the air executing lively gymnastic and tumbling displays in unison and in counterpoint, reaching astounding heights and speeds on an elongated overlapping trampoline that magically appears from within the stage.

  • Acrobatische act met flexibele stokken

    Amazing acrobatic flyers are thrust into the air from a single, double or triple bar that is perched on the shoulders of powerful catchers. The sure-footed flyers perform multiple synchronized somersaults and mid-air twists at an unbelievable pace. Each flexible bar measures two to six inches in width.

  • Synchroontrapeze

    Youthful and free, the acrobatic duo performs spins and breathtaking manoeuvres in perfect sync. On the trapeze, these two artists become one; together they defy gravity and create a remarkable harmony.
