FIRE SHOW
"Pyròvaghi" duo was born in Tenerife in 2016, after several collaborations with other companies.
In the last years, Marilù and Nicola have participated to International Buskers Festival (as Pflasterspektakel in Linz, Sarnico B.F., Artistrada Colmurano, Tolfarte, Piazze in Scena Valdagno, Incantaborgo...), Medieval Festivals (Giornate Medievali in Otricoli, Palio del Velluto in Leonessa, Palio dell'Acuto in Casteltodino, Medioevo a Todi...) and private events.
In "Back To Life duepuntozero" Pyròvaghi melt theatre, martial arts, acrobatics and fire dance in a deeply emotional way to narrate a fairy tale.
In the middle of the scene her fingers dance on an old typewriter, and the story begins.
They meet, they fight, they run away, and finally they meet again in a spectacular burning hug, dancing together in the magic of a fire moon.
A very original way to use tribal Kalaripayattu Fire Dance and fightings on the notes of piano, violins and bolero music played by a vintage turntable.
An explosive performance in the suggestive atmosphere of a story about all of us.
