What happens in the thickets, in the chiaroscuro of the undergrowth and the shadows of consciousness? Italian dancer and choreographer Chiara Bersani likes to explore the place of bodies in society. "Sweet Unicorn," as she introduced herself in her previous show, stands at 98 centimeters tall. Her intimate experience with disability has informed both her perception and her artistic imagination, sharpening the uniqueness of her approach. In this new performance, she stages a group of children with reduced mobility, lost, perhaps abandoned. Above them, a sky of sounds and lights. Below, the tangle of the undergrowth, other sounds, other gleams, living organisms... and spectators. Through the variations of a visually and sonically evolving universe, she sketches an allegory of life, survival, a gentle and subtle meditation, poetic and political, on childhood, on the body – its power, its limits, its place in nature...

A celebrated and often radical figure in Flemish contemporary dance, Jan Martens has made a name for himself with pieces that unsettle and provoke thought. From the raw energy of "The Dog Days Are Over" to expansive works designed for the ballet company of the Flanders Opera, his creations have earned him international recognition. With "Voice Noise," he draws inspiration from the texts of Canadian philosopher and poet Anne Carson to amplify the voices of women who have been silenced for centuries. "Six dancers confront recordings in which the human voice unfolds in various forms: humming, soothing, screaming, whispering, singing. Gradually, they discover their own voice..." Perhaps the beginning of a story yet to be told...

Così fan tutti
Grande SalleThéâtre municipal Raymond Devos - Tourcoing
d'après Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
from Thursday, 5 June 2025 to Friday, 6 June 2025
Grande SalleThéâtre municipal Raymond Devos - Tourcoing
True to the original and libertine spirit, the company Miroirs Étendus places the classic in a contemporary perspective, in a version where it's no longer about a game of deception, but rather about "being overwhelmed by unexpected, explosive feelings of love." Times change, and so do customs: director Antonio Cuenca Ruiz envisions "Così fan tutti" (are they all like that) as an evening among young people that turns into a grand maneuver of a game of love, both light and serious, intimate yet also political. Drawing from contemporary imagination, he pairs Da Ponte's recitatives with libertine texts from the era, in a vision that is both faithful and modern. In line with this inspiration, the musical adaptation—entrusted to Maël Bailly—captures the richness of the original score while infusing it with more contemporary colors through innovative instrumentation. After revisiting Gluck's "Orpheus and Eurydice," the company continues its collaboration with emerging artists, forging new connections to bring the masterpieces of the repertoire closer to the audience of Hauts-de-France.
