CREATION 2025
The washing machine rings, the audience of imaginary spectators disappears, chimerical creatures disappear, objects become immobile again. Game time ends. Back to reality.
He finds himself alone, surrounded by a washing machine, a filled laundry basket and a broom.
A simple task on the agenda : start a washing machine. But success is not so easy…
The adventures follow one another, victories and failures follow one another, emotions flow, full and intense.
One wrong step and everything changes.
NOTE D’INTENTION
This choreographic piece proposes to enter the intimacy of a clumsy dreamer, plunging into a domestic setting where each element becomes a reflection of one's mental and emotional interior. In this sensitive space, Each task is a pretext to overcome the test of a dull and tasteless daily. Banality is gaining importance in the emotions aroused by potential victories and potential failures, from the greatest pride to the most intense destabilization.
How to deal with the loneliness that creeps into this daily friction ?
It is from this questioning that we will follow this individual absorbed in his imagination, coloring these inert objects of a soul and playing with all tasks to switch into a fantastical world.
Choreographic writing changes sliding towards new imaginary universes, inviting you to suspend time with a crafted dance going from crazy speed to the most extreme slow motion. The game is then revealed, it is no longer a question of filling the void of reality, but to transcend it to bring out a poetic space.
What follows is the pleasure of discovering what new bodily technology will be invented moment by moment in these romantic adventures..
Contemporary dance techniques, break dance, acrobatics are explored to nourish a rich universe letting us sense playfulness and hidden joy.
Choreographic research axes
The notion of imbalance is at the heart of choreographic writing, metaphor of uncertainty, feverishness and characterizing movements made approximate. The lunar individual is cluttered, carrying around a mountain of clothes, revealing the weight of duty. Carried away in its momentum, he no longer controls his movements, collapses, rises. The fall becomes a reason to highlight the ambient emotional heaviness but also the funnyness of a moment when everything escapes us.
