Circus, physical theatre, live music // 90 min. // Age: 10+
This is the story of a wandering musician who has traveled for many years searching for a place called Itaka. Itaka is, as a mysterious poet once said to him, the secret place where every lonely soul finds its home. Every song he plays with his saxophone is a prayer for that home to be revealed…
One day, he will arrive to an intriguing place, where he will meet some enigmatic beings. From that moment on, a series of supernatural events will unfold and take him at the edge of a commonly assumed reality… until the revelation takes place.
Inspired by Kavafi’s poem, the Odyssey and other myths, this performance combines circus acts -such as aerials and juggling-, live music, modern mime, live painting, dance and object theater. Join this dreamlike journey and experience touching, astonishing moments while reflecting on the the idea of home, the power of imagination and the delusive nature of reality.
