Ardente - Memorial Para Pedro e Ines
A poetry of light
and mask (masque)
Movement
of such determined intensity
Is this the "cosmic" theatre of Leszek Madzek
or the "cosmic" theatre of our dreams
?
Our eyes cannnot leave the stage
and yet
there is no stage
but a strange world
of sound and motion
antidiluvian in aspect
Tears of joy
Love revealed
We tremble in our seats
attempt to awaken
from this dream
but the actors
hypnotize us
mesmerize us
Slowly
a story is revealed
one
we have dreamt before
in the flames of our unconscious
The music pulses in our veins
a shrieking voice demands recognition
Finally
Finally
we collapse in our seats
Speechless
Lights come on
We leave the theatre
but the theatre has not left us
A black shrouded bent female figure
approaches
reaching out a terribly deformed hand
pleading with eyes
hardly visible
under twisted and suffering skin
to ask
for Mercy
and money
Bravo
Congratulations
to Luis Vicente
the Actors
the Musicians
the Technical Crew
of ACTA
for an extraodinary event
One which
everyone should experience!
