“Endeavour therefore to withdraw thy heart from the love of visible things, and to turn thyself to the invisible.” (Thomas à Kempis)
Following Tranquillo and Intermezzo, two award-winning and critically acclaimed productions, Teatr Klucz returns to stage with Amoroso, a sincere and intimate show in which artists tell a tale of love, in its various forms. They do it endlessly, with devotion and without remorse. To the end. Without end.
Amoroso is for lovers and loved ones, for the happy and pleased. For the lost and the abandoned.
This thought-provoking production asks: What love really means to you? Do you love sincerely? Are you willing to love at all? What are you willing to sacrifice for love? On stage, we will see the whole spectrum of human emotional states and behaviour reflecting the different facets of love.
A poetic, oneiric, unhurried performance combining various means of stage expression, with particular emphasis on dance, stage movement and improvisation. Small parts of the spoken text will be translated into Polish sign language.
The choreography of Amoroso is the result of collaborative work by Teatr Klucz ensemble and its artistic supervisor, Janusz Orlik.
