In Polígono Revisitado, the dramaturgy begins with Bach's Musical Offering, which exemplifies the structure of the music in its movements. In the work, the construction of the scene, built with scenery of panels and netting, gives perspective to the stage. The elements mingle, interpenetrate and contort, constantly producing new configurations. For Silvestrin, “just as a sound in music is considered a geometric point, the body is a point on a flat surface which, when multiplied creates the segments of a polygon.
