Rachid Ouramdane: Corps extrêmes

EVENT DESCRIPTION

Director at Chaillot – Théâtre National de la Danse, Rachid Ouramdane’s Corps extrêmes (Extreme Bodies) explores the human desire for weightlessness through an exhilarating mix of dance, acrobatics and extreme sports. On stage, a community of extraordinary freedom lovers – a highliner, a climber, aerial artists and acrobats – weave a gravity-defying meditation on physical virtuosity and the peace and mental clarity derived from flirting with the void.

Intimate yet larger than life, the performance combines projections, spoken word and a musical score, revealing an existential human experience anchored in reality and suspended in the world of dreams.
