When Monnier and Duroure arrived in New York in 1984, they felt estranged by the prevailing dance practices and choreographic milieu. Thirty years on, they perform Pudique Acide and Extasis, two of their first productions created in New York. Influenced by the works of Pina Bausch, Viola Farber and Dominique Bagouet,
the pieces testify to a key turning point in the history of dance.

Nina Laisné and François Chaignaud invite us on a journey into the heart of the art of romance, in the company of a multi-faceted Orlando. Using this musical material and the stories that run through it it as a starting point, they give shape to a piece which intertwines eras and dances. It is a magic lantern in which the androgynous figures of San Miguel and Doncella Guerrera parade before us.
