French hip-hop dance company Cie Accrorap bring their most rhythmically compelling performance to date.
Prélude is the story of the meeting between the music of Romain Dubois and the physicality of the dancers.
The music, a rhythmic and melodious crescendo, holds us in an intensity that becomes tension. The virtuosity of the dancers beats in unison with the music and the spectators’ attention. This tension increases and the community of dancers become one body to move together to the very end.
The spectator is drawn in by this raw energy that takes them through the different states of these bodies and emotions.
Holding their breath, they too embark on the journey proposed to them, participating in this release and final liberation.
