What can dance - ephemeral by its very nature - do in the face of time?
That is the question asked in the second part of Catherina Sagna's diptych P.O.M.P.E.I.
Here we have three dancers fighting against their own bodies and a video installation showing women of various ages and shapes. Yielding a work, 'which like a city buried under lava incarnates the mystery of form’.

Gurshad Shaheman, Dany Boudreault
Sur tes traces

Theatre

The piece takes us a road-trip in the form of a double portrait involving two destinies, namely those of Gurshad Shaheman born in Iran, and Dany Boudreault in Quebec. Authors, directors and performers, the two artists got to know each other in Europe. Here, each of them sets off in search of their respective pasts.

Marion Duval
Cécile

TheatrePerformance

Certain encounters are life-changing. This piece is about Marion Duval's encounter with Cécile Laporte, an activist and author to whom she has decided to dedicate a show. The resulting 'truth-performance' is an inspiring one and enables us to embrace the unbearable complexity of the world in a light-hearted way.

Jaha Koo
Haribo Kimchi

Theatre

Haribo Kimchi, a hybrid performance combining text, music, video and robotics, embraces South Korean cuisine as part of an investigation into cultural assimilation, together with its conflicts and paradoxes. It enables Jaha Koo to ask questions first raised in his Hamartia trilogy.
