Show : Renata (in creation)

Physical Comedy, Clowning, Material Manipulation, Puppetry
Street Arts (adaptable for indoor venues) / All audiences / Duration: 30–40 minutes

 

Renata, a clown garbage collector for over thirty years, tirelessly pursues her mission: to clean up and restore a bit of balance in a world saturated with waste. Her well-intentioned gestures collide with the absurdity of misguided political decisions, while plastics overflow, impose themselves, and assault the senses. In her mission, plastic waste of all shapes becomes her partner: manipulated, diverted, and shared, it transforms the act of cleaning into a burlesque battle.
Out of this chaos emerge evocative images of a sacred, fragile, and precious environment — a world to protect, where hope is reborn.
