PACO ALFONSIN

​An international project that will eventually be performed in three languages — French, Spanish, and English.

To unfold the poetic but also political power of Lorca’s work, two performers take the stage:

• Two actors who are passionate about Lorca’s texts, and about the magic of seeking the Duende deep within the body, the voice, the musicality of language, and movement.

• Two actors of both movement and text, for whom physical work is essential—it gives the word a tangible force of embodiment.

• Two actors for whom the expressive power of the body—whether through dance or mime—relies on a sensitive play of bodily metaphors in dialogue with text and song.

• Two actors steeped in Andalusian culture.

Paco is Andalusian, and Yves developed a lifelong fascination with flamenco in his youth.

Not For EveryOne!, is a stage poem in
movement on the dichotomies of good and
evil, self and other, mind and body. Being
split in two. Where does one’s identity lie?
He, a human being, a whole, valiantly in
war… Boom! A cannonade splits him in two
halves, The Good’ un one and The Bad’ un
one. One controlling and destroying, the other healing and pitying.

Impossible to survive one without the other. Love, through a rustic lass, She,
Pamela, makes possible a surviving and incomplete wholeness.
In this divided, polarized modern world of ours, where does humanity’s
identity lie?

An artwork that looks at and embraces the “glitches” of our Human Nature.
Animality and Humanity in front of polarized morality, of historical and
contemporary morals our world is built from.

A multidisciplinary and multi-language artistic dialogue between
movement theater, visual and sound arts woven together in a piece of live
theatrical performance.
