FURTHER AFIELD

TempoS is a theatrical creation by the company Les Nouveaux Nez, directed by Alain Reynaud. Between acrobatics and live music, two musicians and two circus artists answer and mirror each other in an intimate stage piece. The quartet explores the porous boundaries between disciplines, combining athletic daring, rhythmic composition and precise scenic choreography to create a dialogue of movement and sound. The production is atmospheric, tactile and attuned to the physicality of performance.

The Other Place

Performances

Directed by Alexander Zeldin, The Other Place is a contemporary reading of Antigone that carves a tragic family drama out of everyday life.
