Thursday 30 of July, through the “Culture at Home” platform, the Theater Complex of Buenos Aires (CTBA) will present the show "In the same sky", by Diana Theocharidis, starring the Contemporary Ballet belonging to the San Martín Theater.

The company, directed by Andrea Chinetti and co-directed by Miguel Ángel Elías, presents the video premiere of a new specially created work. New circumstances propose new challenges and, in this case, choreographer and director Diana Theocharidis decided to take the limits imposed by quarantine not as a topic but as a material and starting point.

With music by Invisible, the legendary national rock band headed by the unforgettable Luis Alberto Spinetta, the setting can be seen from 20 hours on the platform promoted by the Buenos Aires Ministry of Culture.

To give light to "In the same sky", The members of the Contemporary Ballet of the San Martín Theater practiced remotely, through virtual platforms and then they were filmed according to the indications and suggestions of the director.

The idea was to keep a memory of this singular historical moment and to use as alphabet the conditions imposed by the reality in which one lives. The house - its hallways, the Windows, stairs, terraces, rooms and patios - it is the scenic space. Doors and windows can be seen as obstacles or as ways to transcend limits and take a new path.

The music of the show is based on the theme "Alarm among the angels". This piece, structured around an extraordinary guitar solo by Tomás Gubitsch, occupies a doubly symbolic place.

On the one hand, it is the only purely instrumental work of Invisible, one of the founding groups of Argentine rock. For another, the circumstances of his recording speak, as well, of confinement and freedom. Luis Alberto Spinetta, Thomas Gubitsch, Machi Rufino and Pomo Lorenzo entered the recording studio the morning of 24 March 1976. The fury and momentum of that song that gave up the voice and the words seemed to be the only way to name what, without them knowing, was unleashed outside. The composer Pablo Ortiz elaborated, meanwhile, an original piece that works as an overture. The filmed material presents, also, a series of brief portraits of some of the members of the Contemporary Ballet of the San Martín Theater.

As Diana Teocharidis explains, “The work connects diverse worlds to find in each one the enigmatic point of inner support, and a gesture that resonates in the other "and in turn adds that creation in very limited conditions" can unleash an unknown power ".

"As if it were multiple shooting stars in the sky, what unites them is the gaze of those who look at them. In this play, the contribution of each one of the members of the Contemporary Ballet of the San Martín Theater, choreography, music, the scenes filmed, build a space capable of containing, in a fragmentary way all these universes of experiences and personal and collective memories ”, ended.
