Dancer

Angelin Preljocaj presents the world premiere of a piece at the Grand Théâtre de Provence, a work of "wild beauty fueled by the energy of despair, dreaming of igniting the spark of renewal." Dream, revolt, or utopia? Vital necessity? The choreographer and director of Ballet Preljocaj explores this mysterious force that unites us beyond our differences. In this work of raw energy, bodies in motion rise like a dike, and move like a flock of starlings ready to disintegrate only to reconfigure themselves elsewhere.

With this new creation for twelve performers, choreographer Angelin Preljocaj explores the energy that fuels great collective emancipatory movements.

Angelin Preljocaj explores the mysterious force that unites, beyond differences and beliefs, those outraged by injustice. In the heart of villages and cities alike, this force draws us from our homes and flows like a wave fueled by the energy of despair and the dream of igniting the spark of renewal. Carried by the powerful and magnetic sounds of electronic music composer Irène Drésel, Soulèvement (Uprising) seizes this raw energy and channels it like joy through bodies, creating a collective movement reminiscent of a flock of starlings that breaks apart only to reform elsewhere. With the secret hope of opening a space from which the most beautiful expressions of sisterhood and brotherhood, the strongest feelings of freedom, will spring forth.
