Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known. (Carl Sagan) Cosmos is a reflection on the beauty of the universe: planets, stars, galaxies, and the space that unites and separates them, are so mysterious that they nourish the most daring fantasies. eVolution dance theatre reinvents the famous black light theatre in which darkness and the skilful use of light and visual effects give life to enthralling and exciting performances. Cosmos, the latest work by Anthony Heinl and Nadessja Casavecchia, turns its gaze towards the universe, a place where fantastic, floating, poetic figures move within imaginative spaces. The performance is the result of a long and participatory process in which each performer contributes to the final result of the show, enriching it with her wealth of experience ranging from classical dance to urban dance, from contemporary dance to acrobatics. Like every eVolution dance theatre creation, Cosmos testifies how research in terms of technological innovation can amplify, without ever replacing, the emotional and artistic contribution of its performers. Music, a fundamental element in the construction of the narrative, accompanies and intensifies the suggestions of each individual painting. Cosmos takes the spectator on a journey through unknown places, where science and understanding give way to imagination. Thanks to the creative and at the same time “pop” approach that characterises the entire production of eVolution dance theatre, the show leaves the spectator with the feeling of having experienced an unforgettable journey, to a vast space beyond the boldest imagination. To welcome him, on his return, the fragile and beautiful Earth, a small world in the midst of the immensity of worlds.

Deep in the desolate lands of Hell. A calm and eternal day of agonizing torture. Suddenly, a raucous barking breaks the silence it's the devils, running wildly back and forth in search of their king, the dreadful Satan. Along the banks of the Styx, countless souls have arrived, suddenly swept away by a lightning-fast, murderous, cowardly plague of boils and pox. The underworld is suddenly clogged, and Minos, the merciless judge of souls, must perform superhuman feats to assess everyone's sins. Everything grinds to a halt when Beelzebub, with great wisdom, steps in: he offers three jesters Zuan Polo, Domenico Tagliacalze, and Pietro Gonnella a reduced sentence, allowing them to return to what they did best in life: entertaining. The show draws from the ancient art of the jester the quintessential entertainer, the most devoted worshipper of satire and mockery. Since time immemorial, comedians have been both terrified of and drawn to Hell. It’s inevitable: the underworld is the final destination for those willing to do anything for a laugh. Hell and its sulfurous jailers form the foundation of folk traditions and the tales of wandering storytellers. It holds within it both the high and the low, the tragic and the grotesque. "We tried to explore, between the late Middle Ages and the Renaissance, some examples of infernal tales earthy, foul-smelling tracts," writes Stivalaccio Teatro, a company known for its unmistakable and irresistible reinterpretation of the Commedia dell’arte. "These episodes are told by three performers or rather, jesters, comedians, outcasts people willing to do anything to bring laughter. They make use of the jester's craft, that 15th-century mastery which later gave rise to the great tradition of Commedia actors. Strange characters, short tales, grotesque disguises, bizarre songs, demonic masks, and improvisations."

Local and international artists transform fountains and cultural-historical treasures into an open-air gallery with their creative ideas. Reflections on ecological, economic and social aspects related to water and light are the basis of the artistic works. Under the motto "Water is life - light is art", an art trail is being created in Brixen's old town. The Brixen Water Light Festival takes place every two years in May. The idea for the festival was born in 2015 after the premiere of the light and music show at the Hofburg in Brixen. The first edition of the festival was held in May 2017. Art, light and water and a head full of dreams and thoughts. Being free and letting oneself fall, floating on the surface of the water, submerging, and carrying the light within. Being critical and playful, a rollercoaster of emotions. Screaming, standing still, having fun, seeing the world. And figure it out?

The Sacred Heart Fires are a deeply rooted tradition in South Tyrol, lighting up the mountain peaks each June. Originally created as a symbol of faith and Tyrolean unity following the 1796 vow, these fires still represent connection, protection, and love for one’s homeland.
