In Contre-nature<\/em>, Rachid Ouramdane fuses dance and acrobatics into a breathtaking play between grounding and levitation. Together with ten performers from the Compagnie de Chaillot \u2014 each with diverse dance and acrobatic backgrounds \u2014 he creates a powerful choreography in which bodies do not only dance, but also fly, fall, and catch one another.<\/p>\n

Between heavy groundedness and airy ecstasy, a tension emerges that leads deep within \u2014 to images of childhood, aging, loss, and the traces others leave within us. Contre-nature<\/em> explores our relationship to this inner landscape of memories. Amidst fog, projected light images, and ever-shifting rhythms, Ouramdane creates a sensual field of energy where the language of contemporary dance and that of the new circus merge.<\/p>\n

A fast-paced and poetic journey through memory and the present \u2014 and a tribute to human connectedness in its vulnerable beauty.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\t\n\t\t
