He is a funny person. Thanks to his barrow - a system of road marking cones - he creates a limited and - at first sight- inaccessible space. The music is always in harmony with his movements, from his suitcase lots of objects come out and are well arranged in the space. However, something is going to change in that calm town and quiet atmosphere of a village. The road has become a stage and everyone is there to have a look at it. You hear clapping, amazement, attention: what is going on? Children laugh, not everyone understands, but they are really entertained...
Marco Raparoli, drama and circus performer, teacher of circus arts, juggler, tightrope walker, acrobat, mixes his techniques and virtuosity with the comedy of a modern clown, who wants to share emotions and make people laugh.
He has always been fascinated by circus performances and in 2011 he celebrated his 10 years of career by winning the competition "Cantieri di Strada", with the show È piccolo ma crescerà. In 2001 he started to arrange his shows by himself. In 2003 he decided to make a break with the social engagements and he completely dedicated to his passion that - starting from being a simple juggler- brought him to the circus school VERTIGO in Turin where, after a training period, he got his diploma of Contemporary Circus Artist (2005). He participates to the tourness with the show Northern Star- director Jay Gilligan (USA) - as a narrator and since 2005 he has been taking part to the most important Italian circus drama festivals.
