- at La Villette
OFF SITE, as part of SÉQUENCE DANSE PARIS and as part of festival 100%
For their latest creation, B, Koen Augustijnen and Rosalba Torres Guerrero immerse themselves in the world of competitive boxing that they take from the arena to the stage. They explore all of its aspects, from extreme physicality to the psychology of the boxer and the public.
During the show, the live video allows the showdown to be highlighted: zoom on the bodies, where desire flirts with danger. The public plays along, fascinated by this violence sublimated by its own troubling beauty. On stage, five professional boxers and four dancers perform. The hidden side of the boxer is unveiled with his vulnerability, his loneliness and the humanity of a champion.
