SPETTACOLO | CIRCO CONTEMPORANEO | DAI 0 AI 99 ANNI
Andy Spigola, anxious playboy, lover of magic, dance and heights with improbable feats bordering on idiocy and courage, will take you into an absurd world where there is only one password:BOATO!
A show that combines nouveau clown, visual comedy and personal research into the use of stilts and heights as a challenge. Taking inspiration from the characters of the Italian comedy of the 60s (Nino Manfredi, Giancarlo Giannini and Lina Wertmuller’s films) he creates a parody of the Latin lover. From this starting point, a journey begins to enter Andy’s world and discover together with him his true desires and his true passions, following a path of liberation from the patterns imposed by society.

Bio Artist
Andrea Mineo was born in Milan in 1989. From an early age he became passionate about theater. This love leads him as a self-taught artist to attend workshops around the world, from Denmark to South America and leads him to experiment with different theatrical forms, from children’s theater to Japanese Butoh, passing through experimental theater. Parallel to this passion he works as an educator in different contexts, disabilities, young people at risk and drug addiction. One day he meets the Clown and begins his training, initially in Rho (MI) with Marco Borghetti (Tobia Circus) and later with several international masters including Andrè Casaca, Jhonny Melville, Juan Karlos Nunez. In 2015, with Fabio Lucignano and Chiara Cimatti he gives life to the comic magic show Funky Magic Show. In the same year he joins the Collettivo Clown, an artistic collective based in Milan that carries on the clown as a transforming actor of reality. In 2019 he collaborates with the Roman contemporary circus collective DamaRame. At the same time he begins a research path with stilts that leads him to experience the body beyond the limit of height.
The BOATO show is born from the union of these two arts
