Two women eat sunflower seeds in a park, or at the door of a house, or in a courtyard. They share a common space, a conversation, the intimacy of silence. Taranto comes from the mining area of Almería. Originally it is a primitive, simple, dry chant, without guitar, that was born from the need to sing freely.

In this piece of scenic research there is a nakedness that accompanies us and with which we experiment. Respecting the structure of the traditional tablao, we investigate how the encounter between dance and chant can give way to the random to transform itself. Without seeking something concrete, irreverent gesturality appears, humor, chance. Dance and chant modify themselves without breaking completely and what happens we integrate, as in life, to keep dancing.
