Synopsis:
Sophie & Alek is the new creation of the BAAL dance company. A piece for a family audience in which the artists seek to create a more participatory, experiential and horizontal stage space, giving visibility to the invisible. Creating a spherical, friendly and fun space, a magical world full of transformation and content will be found in abstraction.
Biography:
The BAAL Company is a fresh and peculiar look at dance. They break away from conventions to articulate their own language, exploring the body through desires, thoughts and emotions, always looking for new dialogues between the public and technology.
The company was founded by Catalina Carrasco and Gaspar Morey. Catalina is the artistic engine: her restlessness, nonconformity and panic at boredom are her strenghts. She has a degree in contemporary dance from the Miguel Hernández University and has trained in different countries such as England or Nepal. At the same time, she has worked for companies in Barcelona, Mallorca, Santiago de Chile, Berlin and Cologne. Gaspar has a degree in Physical Education and a doctorate in biomechanics. He was introduced to the world of performing arts through technology and later as a performer.
Organized by: ROPA / Roberto Olivan Performing Arts and L’OBRADOR Espai de Creació.
