sensível brings the figure of the female clown into dance. It seems these clowns believe that dance has become too serious; however, the subjects they bring to the stage are not exactly comedic. sensível demands the audience’s full attention, a true presence. We call for active listening, in an affective way, because above all, we believe in love.
In search of a collective truth, sensível (without excess) tries to find its place in today’s world.
