Déplier
Virgile DagneauxAlmost a solo · dance, text and new magic · 1 hWhat remains of twenty years of dance in a changing body? Virgile Dagneaux reviews his gestures, from tap dance to falls, and enjoys repeating them, distorting them, pushing them to the burlesque. The audience is close enough to hear the crash of the falls. Around the dancer, plaster spheres spin and wobbly objects finally give way. As the set comes undone, the confidence turns into a party. At the end of the fall, the audience is invited onto the floor for an end-of-the-world disco ball.Read more →
