What is Corteo about?
The clown Mauro envisions that his own burial will take place amid a carnival atmosphere and be attended by tender angels. The show contrasts the grand with the intimate, the silly with the tragic, and the beauty of perfection with the appeal of imperfection. It also emphasizes the strength and vulnerability of the clown as well as his knowledge and generosity to represent the aspect of humanity that exists in each of us. Corteo is guided through a timeless ceremony in which fantasy teases reality with music, which is both poetic and mischievous.
Baroque Circus Acts
Love’s majestic highs
A bed that puts some bounce into life
Look to the skies, laugh from the bottom of your soul
Pride comes before a fall… and a triple somersault
Horizontal bar meets straight-up genius
