CUTTING THROUGH THE NOISE
2024
Cutting Through the Noise is an energetic journey, an exaltation through the body and the music, a stream of liberating states, a search for identity carried by generous and insatiable beings.
On stage, 12 performers activate the space through a succession of steps in a forward motion towards the audience, allowing a series of subtle transformations to unfold. A playlist inspired by EBM (electronic body music), evoking the energy of a club, propels the movement. At the heart of this choreographic drift is a certain nostalgia, electric youth, and imagery belonging to the Post-Internet Generation. In a world where screens reign more than ever and sustained attention is increasingly difficult, this piece allows a space for this new generation of dancers to find their way and invest their bodies with drive and absolute generosity.
