.Ball

Guilherme Miotto/ Corpo Máquina |

Tilburg-Noord is no Utopia. But Nasser El Jackson [1996] has survived the dreariness thanks to a ball. They work long hours, him and the ball. Sometimes even eight in a row. To great success: Nasser is the current groundmoves world champion. In 2016 choreographer Guilherme Miotto met the idol. He immediately fell for Nasser’s charisma and artful movements. The result of his give-and-go with the Tilburg-based master: a solo that will have you bounce for joy. Or a duet for a man and a football? No: it’s a full-length trio for a man, a ball and a space. After .Even Worse at Boulevard 2017, Miotto is back to celebrate the life urge, the disarming strength and stubborn tenderness of a body poised for survival.
