La Identidad de Vesania

A dreamlike and surreal performance that uses dance, masks, puppetry, physical theatre, and circus as its language. The Identity of Vesania is a long vigil of mourning for a personality that struggles to remain in a memory slowly fading away. This piece is a reflection on mental health—specifically on bipolar disorder. The show invites the audience to enter the mind of the protagonist, to experience her personal journey as she attempts to explore her true identity and embrace her different facets.

The absence of words in this piece draws the audience into a world of introspection, where music becomes the vehicle for a more intimate journey.

Musical composition has been an integral part of the show’s creative process, serving as another tool on stage. We use improvisation as a means of direct connection with both the characters and the audience, drawing from traditional musical forms such as the suite, the waltz, and the fantasia.

We experimented with instrumentation in search of very distinct sonic textures. Distant voices, raw piano tones, the delicate melodies of an oboe, and the rhythmic interplay of orchestral strings form the mechanism of our soundscape—generated and performed live.
