Cía. Daniel Abreu / Perro

Varsovia, Poland

13 Mar '10

The whole story is narrated at an empty stage in which, for the moment, there is room for only one person. One person who tells stories about persons. One person who, like everyone else, has been created from physical and emotional accidents. The story begins with a title, and Perro (Dog) seems to be the most appropriated one. It is well known that the dog is the man’s best friend, but this Perro is halfway between the wild and the tame, the confidence and the rabid, the instinct and the puppy.

Background Information

Press and critics

“In Perro he reaches such a level of synthesis and complexity, simplicity and brutality, I have seen in very few performances (…) I could not classify this work but I can say that it is mature and essential”.

Adolfo Simón, nº 81 de la Revista Por la Danza

“Always smart (even when he spits out to the air), Daniel Abreu travels to his maturity and towards the mirror… The appropriate use of the space, the silences, the darkness that links the elaborated scenes, as cerebral as physical, as lyrical as cruel… Very few times must the critic evaluate a priori a freshman’s work. Despite his experience as dancer, Daniel Abreu is a freshman creator. His solos show a progression which commands respect and invites the best observation…”
