In a metropolis aspiring to become Italy’s first true smart city, already leading the way with innovative solutions to monitor traffic and ensure urban safety, comes a show that combines drone technology with the art of dance.The Drone Saga Milan is ready to mesmerize the Milan audience with a futuristic show, where professional dancers and drones equipped with degreasing lights synchronize in an emotional choreography.
The Manzoni Theater is transformed into a stage from 2075, where the tradition of classical ballet meets the innovation of chips and flying machines. It is not Swarovski crystals that grace the stage, but from vibrantly colored spotlights that illuminate pirouettes and arabesques. On select dates only and with only a few tickets available, the drones will challenge prejudices in a one-of-a-kind show, performing the dancers’ complex steps and immersing the audience in an era that seems light years away.
What is The Drone Saga?
A live dance show where luminous drones mimic the dancers’ dance steps in a compelling choreography with a futuristic feel. Sixty minutes in which the Manzoni Theater is transformed into an innovative setting that seems to come from an episode of Futurama. The synergy between human and robotic dancers gives rise to a unique performance, accompanied by an evocative soundtrack, that will be capable of arousing intense and contrasting emotions, just like the encounter between the art of dance and technological innovation in this performance.
Drones, their use and performance
Drones find numerous implications in everyday life, often used in scientific and commercial fields. Art has certainly not shied away from experimenting with this innovative technology, starting with the film industry, which uses them for recordings of spectacular scenes and from complex angles. In Milan, the first art exhibition was held a few years ago in which drones were either protagonists or an integral part of the works with interactive exhibitions.
The Drone Saga Milan brings advanced drone technology to the stage, combining innovation with the classicism of a historic art form like ballet in an unprecedented show. In this context, drones are not just a machine, but a representation of how creativity can merge with technology in the creation of performances with a singular visual effect, and how machines can succeed in the feat of arousing emotions in a human audience.
Bill Gates said “Drones, in general, will have a greater impact than people recognize, in positive ways to help society,” and while it was once difficult to imagine the potential of this technology, today the impact of drones is evident.
The Drone Saga Milan shows how these machines, equipped with brightly colored lights, can create an incredible visual effect and give a surprising twist to a classical ballet, arousing amazement in the audience. The show will be held at the Manzoni Theater, which will catapult its spectators, on certain dates, into a future that no longer seems so distant.
