AUBE
In Aube, the company once again moves into the public space, in an exploration of passion, resistance and emancipation.
Empowered by bold rhythms, precise gestures, dynamic voices, and their affinity for each other, the four dancer-percussionists skillfully navigate obstacles and constraints, collectively engineering an escape and subsequent celebration. Their gradual liberation transforms their space and physicality, as well as the gaze to which they are subjected.
Intricate and enthralling, Aube is an homage to determined women, united in a struggle against limitation.
While Aube can be presented as a stand-alone piece, it is also the second chapter of the company’s trilogy of site-adaptive works.
A percussive dance contemporary work that questions the place given to women in the 21st century.
