Summary: 
Shoot The Target is a trip for 2 people seeking a common goal, a dialogue of 2 bodies synchronising their footstep to get farther, supporting each other to rest, encouraging each other to go farther, looking after and taking care of themselves.
A spiral submerging the audience into a vital journey leaping from jovial energy to the weight of maturity, thus marking out a parallelism with the company’s career.
Dance in unconventional venues is part of Proyecto Larrua’s identity, a contemporary dance company run by Jordi Vilaseca and Aritz López based in Vitoria-Gasteiz; hence the Azkuna Zentroa Atrium is the ideal venue to show Shoot The Target, a work arising from the need to return to origins i.e. getting dance to reach out to all audiences due to its affinity.
Description: 
Shoot The Target flourishes as a need to return to origins, after all these years since Proyecto Larrua began we felt the urge to look back at that first residency between us, that initial research leading to the creation of our first street work bearing our name LARRUA.
Putting ourselves back in that self-same position but with the perspective of experience and acquired knowledge, re-researching, and dialoguing from movement. Dance in unconventional venues is part of our identity, something we’ve been doing for years, because having dance reach out to all audiences is our passion, not to mention the affinity generated from the same. This is why we’ve always been committed to creating specific works for these venues, taking into account that proximity, 360º vision, its fleeting existence, acoustic contamination likewise other specificities of that venue.
