La consagració de la primavera / Le sacré du printemps by Roger Bernat.

Strap on wireless headphones and get up and join in – or simply observe – one of the great masterpieces in the history of dance!

To echo its slogan “Let your spirit soar. Let yourself go. Enjoy the dance experience. ” and to launch its 2018 Autumn season, Agora de la danse is presenting Le Sacre du printemps (The Rite of Spring), a show by Roger Bernat that is inspired by the Pina Bausch version of 1975.

The dance is like a game where you are the hero! No one is looking at you, as everyone is an integral part of the performance. You are free to join in or simply observe. As the choreographer notes, the mechanism tends to evacuate all authority. There is no ideal form to achieve. Audience members are the performers in a show that is guided and inspired by the music and the mood of the moment.

The Mountain, the Truth & the Paradise by Mal Pelo

Supported by a dense soundscape, Pep Ramis transports the audience into a new fiction as he casts his gaze on the tragicomedy of the human condition.

Now in his fifties, Pep Ramis explores the formidable machine that is the body with a poetic solo that questions the sense of the divine and the profane, spirituality and ignorance, the beautiful and the banal. The dancer’s transformations occur on a white stage stripped bare, where precise movement and dialogue form the basic structure of a constantly shifting theatrical journey that is quite moving.
