La Verità is an experience that’ll have you gasping as much at its imaginative feats as its physical ones. Daniele Finzi Pasca has overseen not one, but two Winter Olympics closing ceremonies so he knows how to stage a spectacular show.
This one has you entering the world of a surrealist painting, with its heady mix of acrobatics, theatre, dance and music performed against the monumental Salvador Dalí backdrop that sparked the show.
But where Dalí was inspired by nightmares, Compagnia Finzi Pasca’s “gaze is always charmed, inspired by dreams”. This is a dream you won’t want to wake from, as the agility of mind and body displayed by these cirque veterans leaves you breathless.
