There is no linear story but moments, images, situations that transfigure the formal datum of the choreographic score into music, in what appears to be a ‘mosaic-work’. An investigation into pure movement, starting from the awareness that ‘without space there would be no movement, but without movement space would not be conceivable. With Round Trip we delve into an analysis of different identities, of the encounter with the other and its many facets. Individuals intent on a quest, unique and multiple, confront each other and identify themselves, still mingling, heedless of any classification. A circular motion that consists of invading and abandoning space, going and coming back not always coinciding, as if every single situation were disconnected from the previous one or the following one and could belong each time to an infinitely variable number of performers’.  Roberto Tedesco
