“fascinating powerful solo ” (Neue Rheinzeitung, Düsseldorf)
Étude No 1
Captivating and full of contrasts! The curtain will rise on Étude No 1, first performed at the ImPulsTanz festival in Vienna in 2001. A piece that marked Marie Chouinard’s return to the solo form.
“I fell in love with Les Trous du ciel, a harmonious blend of primitivism and refinement. […] The lighting is magnificent. […] So utterly transparent and self-evident that the term dance seems to me almost inadequate. […] It leaves the audience buoyant, purified, beyond themselves.”(Cahier de thÉÂtre Jeu, Montreal)
“A revelation […]. Ineffable costumes and exotic props add to the intelligent vitality of a new world. Vivid. Amazing.” (Danser, Paris)
Les Trous du ciel
Étude No 1 will be presented together with Trous du ciel, her first group work. The world première of the latter was at the Springdance festival in Utrecht in 1991. This northern fable for twelve dancers follows the wanderings of a tribe of “primitives” as they movingly wander through the luminous immensity of the barrens.
