Masson/Duboule/Ruiz/Vandenbulcke

Assembled at the initiative of Vincent Ruiz and Nicolas Masson, this newly formed quartet offers an open, democratic interpretation of recent compositions by Nicolas Masson. The project blends composed material and responsive improvisation, allowing structures to emerge and be shaped in real time. The ensemble—Nicolas Masson (saxophone), Théo Duboule (guitar), Vincent Ruiz (double bass) and Nathan Vandenbulcke (drums)—explores textural interplay, collective listening and the elasticity of form in contemporary chamber jazz.

Directed by Céline Goormaghtigh and written by Anne Berest, LA VISITE probes maternal instinct with sharp humour and urgent intensity. In a compact domestic setting, a young mother at the limits of endurance confronts visitors while her defenses dissolve; a trio of actresses whirl and collide, delivering a caustic torrent of language and revealing movement. The work explores ‘matraissance’—the birth of motherhood—balancing lucidity, rage and tenderness to unsettle familiar myths about maternal bliss.

Choreographed by Trajal Harrell, M2M reimagines a crossing of postmodern Judson Church minimalism with the exuberant voguing balls of Harlem. Conceived for three dancers, the piece fuses formal restraint and performative flamboyance, foregrounding jazz, funk and R&B inflections within an improvisational dance language. Harrell’s staging negotiates historical narrative and speculative fiction, shifting between precise postmodern phrasing and vivid gesture to evoke community, desire and the politics of movement.
