Forces — Diptych of Dance

Booking Required

Choreographed by Aszure Barton and Sharon Eyal and danced by the Ballet du Grand Théâtre de Genève, Forces assembles two contrasting works: BUSK and Strong. The evening probes the tension between collective momentum and individual assertion through precise physicality, sculptural group formations and charged athleticism. Lighting and staging carve intimate and monumental spaces, while the company alternates between rigorously synchronized ensembles and moments of raw personal presence, offering a powerful study of power, identity and shared movement.
