Memories
This act is the result of several years of research on Quickchange, trying to innovate in this field, putting it at the service of the dramaturgy, combining it with circus techniques. In 2015 Diego & Elena premiered the first aerial quickange at the International Magic Festival of Madrid, being recognized by the prestigious magazine «Magic». This investigation process has aimed to use scenographic elements for the realization of the changes, looking for acrobatic and choreographic ways of doing it, with a contemporary aesthetic, bearing in mind that those changes and the magical effects should be part of the story. The act is about the loneliness after a relationship that has ended. The memories and the nostalgia of a timeshare. The hope and the second chances.
