SYNOPSIS

There are moments when we feel something breaking inside us. We do not quite know what comes next, only that we are no longer who we were. We find ourselves between two waters, between two names, between two worlds. The final breath before the leap. In that instant—between collapse and rebirth—ALÉN is born.

 

ORIGINAL IDEA

ALÉN is a contemporary dance stage creation performed by four dancers, born from the desire to inhabit the edge. It explores the idea of the “beyond” not as a destination, but as a process: the moment when something ends, while the new has not yet taken shape.

The piece proposes a poetic and sensory experience of this in-between space, a suspended territory where identity dissolves only to re-emerge transformed. Through a dynamic and energetic choreographic language, the four performers move along the boundary between what we once were and what we are about to become.

This is a highly physical and dynamic proposal, driven by an energy that remains in constant flow. Movement never comes to a halt; it evolves, transforms, and unfolds new physical qualities, weaving a continuously shifting scenic fabric. This physical intensity, combined with the ritual nature of the work, invites the audience into a sensory experience in which time seems to suspend its usual logic.
