Once upon a time there was a place with a little hell and a little paradise.
(HERBERTO HELDER)

Monstrous Nature, group piece by choreographer and performer Marcela Levi proposes bodies that are changed by their own fabulating strength. Punctuated by micronarratives and fictions, this work offers different reading possibilities of what is happening on stage. Here performance becomes the space for an intense intersection of languages. Visual and plastic, theatrical and choreographic elements interlace in order to create a polymorphic partition thought not as a collection of fragments that tend to harmonize but as languages that are constantly crossing each other.
