Chiara Bersani: Seeking Unicorns

This is a performance designed for non-theatrical spaces: spaces whose light and history ask to be listened to and inhabited. Spaces in which the unicorn tries to find itself in a new form, in which it renounces the fairy tales of the theatre to begin a journey destined to be different for every audience. The unicorn is always looking for the other; it is on the hunt. It experiments with new forms of love, finds something (or not) and in the meantime, small wonders can happen that might completely change its search and seeking. In Seeking Unicorns, Chiara Bersani uses the wonder of the unicorn to explode and reconfigure performance’s habitual routines. Bersani invites her audience to view and interpret the body of the performer, as well as their own bodies and the bodies that surround them, in new and surprising ways.
