INSTÁVEL
Centro Coreográfico
Fundada em 1999 por Ana Figueira, ao longo de cerca de 10 anos a Instável deu-se a conhecer através dos projetos de Companhia: em cada ano, um coreógrafo conceituado seleciona bailarinos em audição e cria uma nova peça em residência, para depois estrear e circular tanto quanto possível. Com a mudança para o Teatro do Campo Alegre, em 2011, a Instável amplia e consolida o seu trabalho, dando início ao seu caráter de Centro Coreográfico.
Como é que se desconstrói o indivíduo informado cultural e socialmente, depois de entrar no loop das suas próprias cegas convicções? Urna é a oportunidade não aproveitada, perdida para sempre num não-tempo longínquo. É a perda de perguntas significativas e a obsessão por respostas tranquilizadoras e efémeras. Urna é o que sobra depois da curiosidade, que se torna opressão, que cede lugar ao cacófonico redundante, que por sua vez cede o lugar ao absurdo, que cede o lugar ao vazio, que cede o lugar a novas possibilidades, que geram outras curiosidades. E assim por diante para sempre. O que sobra é um loop; movimentos, palavras, símbolos esvaziados de significado, repetem-se até ao ridículo para podermos refletir acerca da urgência de reduzir (ou elevar?) o ser humano à besta rendida.
It’s a Long Yesterday / Carminda Soares and Maria R. Soares
One or two bodies, six at most. It's a long yesterday is an exercise in desire, fracture and multiplication.
Krakatoa, emerges as the political need to scenically address a social occupation: breaking the public silence around suicide.
On stage, a character for two interpreters who invoke memories, fears and insecurities, in a deaf dialogue with each other. The inside and the outside, the fall and the jump, the private and the public, all wrapped up in lullabies. On stage, two bodies that never tire of trying. Two bodies that know that sometimes you have to relearn how to live, and even relearn how to breathe.

Barro, Terra Molhada Onde a Bota Escorrega / Mafalda Deville
Memories and dreams resonate in the box of time, where the past and the future do not always succeed each other in that order. By water, by fire, by hands. The body, mutable matter, from the languid seduction to the catastrophe of the shard. Everything in black and red. As in roulette, bodies come into play.
TAKE / São Castro and António M Cabrita for Companhia Instável
When we think of sound, the first image is that of invisible waves traveling through the air, captured by our ears and interpreted by our brains. But beyond its auditory dimension, sound has weight, movement and strength. Sound has a story in itself and the body incessantly searches for a story.
Rubble King / Duarte Valadares
Rubble King introduces a short attention span, an investigative creature of the archetype. An entity in a sandbox, a place of unlimited information, an excessively productive circuit looking for archetypes to feed on. Various states through shifting attention and dodging the conclusion, a rational ridicule.
FOCAR / Intensive Course in Choreography for Architecture

Algures | numa mutação feérica / Flávio Rodrigues
In A SENSE OF the audience is invited to co-create a space, where collective power and dreaming are used as modes of protest.
