Like glamorous woman vampires, with a wicked smile on their faces, they keep their balance on their "cajones" in impossible postures, until the next part of the performance begins. As often seen in Increpación Danza, eye-catching costumes play an important role. On this occasion, it is a green dress with an endless tail, which the dancer challenges to a duel, getting excited and adopting neurotic positions. A woman on the verge of a nervous breakdown. Another dancer drags herself along the floor barefooted and wearing a white light tulle dress, transforming into blurry figures of air and water to the rhythm of the castanets. Seduced and under attack. When compared to traditional flamenco, Breviario has very little in common. Where flamenco becomes as tendinous as the arms of the female dancers. Even in those moments when it is closer to tradition, it is still different. Face-to-face with the "cajón", the actress pounces on her instrument, seducing and attacking it, as if it were here rebellious lover. "Auf Wiedersehen" they say in the last part. A part where limits have been ignored, a moment of sheer ecstasy putting an end to Breviario and leading to a long and energetic round of applause from the audience Thomas Hag / Neue Rhein Zeitung 22.03.08
