HENGE — Space Rock Collective

HENGE deliver a space-rock spectacle that blends rave energy and progressive-rock textures. Since arriving seven years ago the band has earned acclaim — two albums, extensive touring and a Best Live Act award — and their performances feel at once exuberant and slightly uncanny. Propulsive rhythms, swirling textures and playful theatricality create an immersive, joyous atmosphere that oscillates between subversion and warmth, broadcasting a message of hope that leaves audiences amused and exhilarated.

These two premiere performances present a large-scale collective choreography by Catol Teixeira (The Tongue) and a dystopian fiction by Marion Siéfert (Bunker). The Tongue explores ensemble movement, textural layers and spatial composition; Bunker unfolds a tense speculative narrative forged through dramaturgical research. Both pieces stem from extended creation periods in Romandy and invite spectators to witness artistic processes and the evolving stage languages of the companies.
