Contemporary Visual Theatre
Thessaloniki Concert Hall – 2^nd, 10^th, 22^nd October and 7^th November 2015

Moni Lazariston Festival, in cooperation with Inter Show Productions and Thessaloniki's Concert Hall create a new institution in the city, the first International Mime Festival, a short form of special performing arts festival.

Some of the most impressive and completely original performances abroad, where words replaced by expression, will be presented in Megaron stages.

Body, music, effects, and all the modern techniques of physical theater and circus are combined to produce new forms of theatrical expression. Here, the words are aside and give their position to a different kind of "speech", which is expected to fascinate and excite the audience of Thessaloniki...

For the first event were selected four excellent performances from Europe, but also from distant Japan, which will carve a unique journey in human expression and give an overall great experience to those who attend!

The eVolution dance theater was founded in 2008 by Antony Heinl, former dancer and choreographer of MOMIX, and almost immediately devoted itself with success to create shows based on the fusion of imaginative athleticism and charming visionary. The great strength of the company is the knowledge of a wider artistic vocabulary that is not limited only to dance but extends to other art forms such as video art, illusionism, and the surprising use of lights and special live effects. 

"FireFly" generates unique visions of beauty and humour with a cast of dancer/acrobats and innovative technical effects. Thanks to almost three decades of experience in theater and dance, and as a creative “consultant/assistant” for Momix, Heinl has developed a unique theatrical sensibility, incorporating the human element with illusion in a rare combination. 

"FireFly" is an illusionary and magical infusion, able to excite and fascinate young and old; it’s a rare, engaging and dreamlike performance matching wonder with art, leaving in the process an indelible mark on the minds and hearts of the audience.

Dedicated to producing innovative dance theater and illusion work for Italy and the world.
