It is said that the Male Lunatic is subject to the influence of the phases of the moon, that he is a maniac or a visionary.

The Female Lunatic is also moonstruck, eccentric and crazy. What is certain is that they both live in the Moon, at Luna Park!

An amusement park hidden in one of the faces of the Moon, where we can imagine everything and be moonstruck at one’s will...

Come with us on a journey into space, with shadows, objects and lots of boogie woggie!

A visual and experimental journey for all ages on the several ways in which Man used to see or represent his image in relation to the universe. The countless phantasies created in connection to what surrounds us and what may be on the other side, as the one of Lucian of Samosata, a Greek philosopher and cynical writer who imagined in the 2nd century AD one of the craziest trips to the moon, which even included the first interplanetary battle!

The sources are inexhaustible to compose a performance that starts from image, dream and thought.

Fasten your seat belts and keep the seatbacks in an upright position.

Starting countdown: 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Ignition. Blast off!

There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.

- William Shakespeare, “Hamlet”
