Elle respire encore
March 14. 15. 16, 2018 -- 7 PM + March 17, 2018 -- 4 PM
Who among us has not walked the city’s streets at night, peering into people’s homes? In these thousands of homes live hundreds of individuals and families—a myriad bodies, personalities, cultures, and rituals that together form a whole, an ecosystem, a micro-society that breathes together as one, despite certain rifts.
Stage director Jérémie Niel is fascinated by the place of the individual in society. In ELLE RESPIRE ENCORE, society and the human body, hyperrealist theatricality and the choreographic expression of latent emotions are gently intertwined.
Performed by a complex and protean mass of dancers, actors, performers, musicians and Homo sapiens sapiens of all ages, this Traces-Hors-Sentiers piece turns the spotlight on our emotions, our solitudes and the networks of nerves and relationships that connect us, blurring the line between dance and theatre.
