Immersive show at the Royal Castle of Collioure
The original immersive animated work ""EXPLORA, Le château invisible. El castell invisible"" will be presented to the public from Sunday June 4, 2023 at the Royal Castle of Collioure.
A real time machine, the EXPLORA show takes you on a journey into the history of the Royal Castle of Collioure.
It is by following a young girl as curious as she is reckless in the bowels of the fort that the most secret and inaccessible corners of the monument come to life on the vault of the room.
In the flickering light of a candle, a graffiti is revealed at the bend of an underground... Further on, a buried object reappears from the ground, freeing as if by magic the memory of those who, over the centuries, built, inhabited and surveyed this castle suspended above the waves.
During the creation process, the directors of the show were inspired by episodes from the story and objects that particularly marked them, intrigued them... They are presented and contextualized in this decryption guide.
This evocation of the evolution of the site through the ages, of its disappeared states and of the underground parts not accessible to the public confronts the external and visible space with the secret monument. It thus makes it possible to offer a new experience of visit , participative and dreamlike , which involves the public.and sends it back to his imagination .
Throughout the exploratory journey, the spectator, following a young girl as curious as she is reckless , encounters traces of the past, its shadows that have become barely perceptible, somewhere in the buildings and in memories. They take shape on the wall, reveal themselves on the plaster, very close. A gaze that fixes, a murmur that crosses. Impossible to escape...
An original creation proposed by:
- Special fairies
- opixido
