Robyn Orlin In a world full of butterflies, it takes balls to be a caterpillar… some thoughts on falling…

[Dance]

Robyn Orlin presents two radical solo pieces, performed by Elizabeth Bakambamba Twanbe and Éric Languet. Once faced with dancers’ refusal to perform in front of the image of the man falling off the twin towers on 9/11, she questions the emotional power of images and the limits of representation, and invokes the myth of Icarus. What better way than dance is there to speak of flight and downfall?
