Pas de Dieux

Physical
Theatre

The idea of difficulty animates us all the time. We don’t want man to be an angel; we want him to be a hero. That is to say, a man like us, but who does extraordinary things. He jumps, yes, but in spite of the law of gravity. And everything he does is always ‘in spite of.’
-Etienne Decroux

to the
unknown

and back

Why are we concerned with art? To cross our frontiers, exceed our limitations, fill our emptiness – fulfill ourselves. This is not a condition but a process in which what is dark in us slowly becomes transparent.
-Jerzy Grotowsky

a strange
odyssey

The terrain without a road and thus, all is a road…this land without direction leads everywhere without leading exactly to nowhere…
-Benito Pérez Galdós
