Tuco
Trio in collaboration with Companhia Instável
A western for three dancers.
The starting point of this project is cult film “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” by Sergio Leone . What intrigued us was these three viscerally human characters. A fragile set of alliances exists between three individuals in search of something. The constantly changing power at play: good and evil, victim and persecutor, hunter and prey, victory and defeat.
TUCO is one of three heroes of the film: he personifies childish greed, facing life like a game. He is the most humane of the three protagonists in this picaresque fresco. A primary being, he is violent, loud, devious, stubborn and greedy, and his “revealed” side is sensitive, loyal, sweet, radiant and lost. He is ambivalent: he is a double meaning, because he is the balance between good and evil, the adult and the child, unconscious of danger and because he is a hero who does not win.
