​VIP - Very Important Places is a collective walk that reclaims urban space through walking, circus, and music. VIP traverses everyday corners, often forgotten and little frequented. It opens a window to an imaginary world made up of invisibilized places, distant conversations, and objects that go unnoticed in daily life.

VIP leads the audience on an unvarnished stroll through the everyday corners of the city, where characters meet and cross paths in common places: a bench, an intersection, a balcony.

Through headphones, circus, and scenic devices —such as custom-hacked signs or a quarrel inside a distant car that can be heard through the headphones— the characters orchestrate the everyday urban space and sketch a tragicomic narrative that plays with the absurd and brushes against surrealism.

The team? One musician, three circus artists, and a local resident. Surprising, direct, with the city as raw material.
