Prend su toé

Ian: “I like it!”
Philip: “I don’t.”
A short piece about negotiation

 

Prends su toé is an invitation to enter the choreographers’ creative process and allows the audience to discover what goes on behind the scenes, from the dance studio to the stage. Fueled by reflections on belonging, ambivalence, and authenticity, this project is first and foremost a research on negotiation. Straddling the line between dance performance and stage documentary, the anecdotal universe of Prends su toé offers a deconstructed contemporary jig where the audience is invited to travel back and forth between the studio and the stage.

“A funny, entertaining, and intelligent piece.”

– Caroline Dusseault, at the opening cocktail of the Festival Tournant
