New Teaser #2
 

Verticale de Poche #1

- New production - Premiere in July 2019

How to share vertical dance with the audience in a completely different point of view ?
Seated on a small pillow, the audience will overhang the vertical dancers suspended on 2,10 mter high poles.
This performance takes to the floor what is usally seen on high walls. This makes the audience closest to the "gravity miracle"
Indoor or outdoor - 30 min show followed by 1h of workshop - 2 dancers - for young audience
