“Pas de deux” is a unique “choreo-biography” that delves into the connection between dancer Pascal Gravat and writer Julien Mages, focusing on the passing of time. Through an immersive blend of poetry, dance, and sound art, the duo explores themes of aging, maintaining a youthful spirit, and finding solace in art. At nearly seventy years old, Pascal Gravat uses his body as a dynamic tool of expression, while Julien Mages adds depth with his evocative words. Together, they craft a piece that honors both the fleeting and the everlasting, highlighting how art provides a glimpse of eternity.

Bold and poetic, “Insuline” is a powerful denouncement of virilist and heteronormative excesses.
