"la fantasía es un lugar en el que llueve." Italo
Calvino
We
know that a good garden, a garden with a soul, hides a secret arrangement.
The garden as an arrangement does no longer exist the very moment one
wanders into its density.
Its
mysterious structure disappears only to turn into a possible path drawn
amongst the scrub. The invisible architecture of a show is the one that
takes us through our personal imagery.
The
garden is oneself, your fantasies, your fears, your desires.
The garden is life, relationship with others.
The garden is a show.
From this duality in which we live between fantasy and reality, between
night and day, between desire and reason, between my world and the others,
we start to concieve this garden whish would have the invisible disorder
of nature, of human nature.
And
through this trip we encounter "a midsummer's night dream" which
has lent us its relationships between the characters. And as they walk
into the woods, the wild garden, a spell complicates all of these stories
of love, sex and mislove.
But is a spell needed for a fairy queen to fall in love with a donkey
or to fall for someone from just one glance?
"The
non-existent garden" is a show weaved in overlapped levels, like
a tale within a tale, a story embracing other stories. Theatre inside
theatre. A framework constructed with a combination of languages and personalities
of different origin. A complex distillation of simple and poetic associations,
combined with intimate daily routines turned into dance.

Lived
Dream
Shakespeare's work gives the whole, despite the liberties
taken in the details, a dramatic frame of enormous internal cohesion…
The Non-existent Garden is a piece rich and diverse in details,
overwhelming, suggestive in its development and of a high finale.
A lived dream.- La Vanguardia 06.05.04 - Joaquim Noguero

The
garden of dreams
An attractive show in which the movements of the characters
have, for a start, a reason to be, something to give thanks for…
The Shakespearean comedy is, with no doubt, a solid base for this
very agile and entertaining staging about human duality, but it
is not necessary to know the work of the bard to understand what
Senza Tempo wants to tell us.

A
walk through dreams and reality
… But it is in the theatrical section where Senza Tempo
prints its hallmark with their poetic way of showing content…
All this becomes a success thanks to performers who give with
their differences, physical and interpretative, one of the best
assets of the show… Actors and dancers in which Pablo Ley
has known how to carve a good dramatic job.-El Periódico
08.05.04

The
imagination of the truth
Senza Tempo delights us with a show as realistic as a fable
can be… The scenes pass by as pictures from a baroque altarpiece
of surreal plasticity and the performers play their part to perfection,
… From a good seventy five minute show to the pleasure of
dance forever.- Avui 08.05.04 - Bàrbara Raubert Nonell

Language in movement
The Senza Tempo company fascinates with its latest show"
The non-existent garden" in the TNC… The group uses
rare scenic appearances, in a combination of the surreal with
everyday life. And what is more important: it does not give up
on telling stories… -El Periódico/Suplemento Viernes-07.05.04-Guillem
