AMOEBAS is a performance about identity construction and an introspection on how and what forms our identification. The word "amoeba" takes on a dualistic meaning. from one side is the adjective used to describe a person who shows no personality, resourcefulness or passion. A seemingly purposeless state of mindlessness. On the other side is the name of the single-celled organism whose peculiarity is transformation, never having the same form (from ancient Greek ἀμοιβή, change, transformation).

to B**** WITH to BROKEN HEART is the solo by contemporary dancer Matilde Tommasini, a talented Italian artist living in the Netherlands, where she works as a dancer to full time.

His creation, directed from Elia Pangaro, is an intimate and engaging work. In the artist's interpretation, depth of emotion and technical skill emerge, transforming the performance into an experience that goes beyond physical movement, capturing the attention and touching the hearts of the audience. The performance tells a story of vulnerability and strength expressed through body language.
