“Amaluna is mother moon … amaluna is a tumultuous succession of emotions.
A mixture of intrigue, mystery, lights and shadows, vaults, acrobatics, breaths and emotions trapped in my eyes.
I clearly felt the acrobat’s anxiety, that rhythmic pulse of the choked chest at each jump, I perceived the emptiness of air caused by harmonic and elegant vaults.
A petrified audience waited, quivered, almost climbed on those skimpy armchairs and held back the emotion and then melted into a thunderous applause to the final jump …
But that roar did not touch me, kidnapped my eyes, captivated the soul, as Ulysses in the sea of mermaids was bewitched.
Because amaluna is not just a circus, amaluna is theater, drama, comedy, acting, costumes, sounds and scents … amaluna is magic …
And at the end of the curtain the spell vanishes but the magic remains “.
