Desidera is a poetic and captivating aerial performance by Compagnia dei Folli, combining breathtaking acrobatics on sway poles with dance in the sky to express the fragility, strength, and deep human desire to fly even in the most uncertain moments.
The show comes to life with the lifting of a large glowing white sphere, resembling a moon suspended in the sky. Below it, an acrobat floats in the air, dancing with grace and lightness in a breathtaking aerial choreography. The poetry of the movement blends with powerful visuals, offering the audience an emotional and dreamlike experience.
What makes the show even more captivating is the scenic use of sway poles—flexible poles over five meters tall—on which two performers execute spectacular moves. Their swinging movements, suspended between sky and earth, become a metaphor for human emotions, the need for balance, and the tension between freedom and connection.
Desidera is a hymn to dreams, a journey that crosses the boundaries of reality to immerse itself in a world where the strength of the body meets the lightness of the air. It is perfect for squares, festivals, outdoor evening events, and cultural celebrations aiming to amaze and enchant the audience with powerful imagery and poetry in motion.
A show that moves, inspires, and invites you to look up, where the impossible seems to become possible.
