The music sometimes turns lyrical, sometimes playful, carrying Corteo through a timeless celebration in which illusion teases reality. Juxtaposing the large with the small, the ridiculous with the tragic and the magic of perfection with the charm of imperfection, the show highlights the strength and fragility of the clown, as well as his wisdom and kindness, to illustrate the share of humanity within each of us. In a carnival atmosphere, the clown pictures his own funeral taking place, watched over by quietly caring angels. Combining acrobatic feats, comedy and acting, the show plunges spectators into a theatrical world of fun and spontaneity situated in a mysterious space between heaven and earth. 14, at 10 a.m.Ĭorteo, which means cortege in Italian, is a joyous procession, a festive parade imagined by a clown.
