The Ballet of the Grand Théâtre de Genève invites the public to an open rehearsal of “Bal impérial,” a new creation by Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui. Attendees will have the opportunity to watch dancers as they prepare, with glimpses into various segments of the performance. The rehearsal will be followed by a screening of Romain Girard’s documentary “Don’t put me in a Box,” which delves into Cherkaoui’s artistic journey.
Pop energy, raw intensity, a touch of animality, and playful shifts in force. With live music and dancers moving around the audience, the beat spreads—visceral and physical. La Tendresse du ventre de la baleine explores the tension between individuality and collectivity, between identity, intimate desires, and the need to belong.
