PARADISE IS NOT IN THE SKY! is an improvisation performance emerging from the mutual desire to explore the possibilities of the present moment. to bodies bringing their own story of life. during this journey Horacio MACUACUA and Edivaldo ERNESTO will share stories that we all already know, stories that have been forgotten, or that we will find out. in fact, everybody is made of thousands of stories, behaviour, knowledge, cultures, languages, gestures. in an unbreakable journey that started before it began, intuition, sensitivity, and instincts, will mark the meaning of carrying an investigation further to unexpected limits. where are we going? we do not know! but somehow, we have already started to imagine.
