Fuerza Bruta

 

 

 

Over Thanksgiving break, my mother and I saw a show called Fuerza Bruta. It was a show that I have never even seen something similar to. First of all there were not seats and the whole show is done while you stand around the moving “stages”. The first stage was a treadmill that used a conveyer belt affect to show the mundane routines of everyday life. Then the staff redirected out attention to the walls and rolled out a foil curtain with dancers hanging from the curtain pole. While we were being told where to look, the treadmill was moved out of the room. Another stage looked like a box and the performers danced inside of that. Fuerza bruta literally translates into brute force. The dancing has a lot of loud bangs and heavy footwork. Nonetheless, it’s unimaginably amazing. I would recommend this show to anybody. If you go, try to get the rush tickets 2 hours before the show because they are much cheaper than the original priced tickets.

    Hello Semona. Just want to say that this show looks really interesting and I actually recommended to my mother that we go see it. It looks like the amount of physical strength needed to complete some of these stunts is very high making the show a thriller at every turn. I also thought the conveyer belt idea was quite unconventional and definitely adds an interesting twist to the show.

    You guys would love the show, but unfortunately they are closing very soon so you have to rush to see it. A thriller is a perfect way to describe it. I forgot to mention it in the post, but the there’s a specific part of the show is really creative. There’s a staircase that leads upstairs to a door and when the actors get to the door… theres just air. So basically the actors stand high up and then get off the last step. Instead of falling, they end up running to through the air. It may sound confusing to follow what I’m saying and thats because it’s hard to but genius ideas into words.
