The new creation by David Marques is inspired by a dance performance the choreographer saw during his childhood, the impact it had at the time, and the impact it has today on his choreographic work. In a labyrinth of mirrors and whispers, Teorias da Inspiração plants a conspirative fiction about this and other trailless performances, now reactivated by memory and imagination.
