Act Synopsis
"Settle down" - A fun, colorful and cheeky act that tells the story of a woman trying to escape the "boxes" she has been put in by society. It is an emotional yearning of stepping out and be original and not staying between the lines. Innocent, hopeful yet sensual and charismatic.
Giulio Scatola, the autor of idea, the creator and choreographer of these act.
It was already our third creation and we wanted to do something completely different - another character, another style. For me personally its such a big challenging and the experiment with myself: I try to open me as a different person. So we did the creation two years ago, but it was still not finished and I had no chance to perform with it. And my best friend, Maxim Helmut who is the director and the artist too, helped me to work on the important details in the act, he inspired me to make a filming of the act - and we worked hard to make it possible.
Concept and choreography - Giulio Scatola,
Directed by- Maxim Helmut
