Description Le Jardin Io Io Ito Ito is a garden like no other. Agarden of paradise filled with exotic creatures.
Contemporary, classical, baroque, famenco, breakdance, folk, circus, hip-hop, African and Chinese styles merge in an astounding multimedia production. Dance is transformed into a magical carousel of animals, hybrid objects and fanciful characters.
Inspired by the art of Max Ernst, Le Jardin is a celebration of dance in all its joyous forms and playful possibilities. An ode to the Autumn fiestas and nocturnal antics of Montalvo's Spanish childhood. A celebration of life itself.
