MORTA
Choregraphy : Harold Rhéaume
Audience: General
Length: 20 minutes
Produced for Puzzle Danse, a project bringing together four choreographers from France and Quebec.
Two fragile human beings, distressed by the other’s absence, take us to the heart of this universal human tragedy: the one we all fear.
A sorrowful, spine-tingling slow dance on the theme of death. Audiences wept.
“The highlight of the evening (…) a duet who shoot straight to the heart.”
LA PRESSE
“The nicest gift offered by Puzzle Danse is Morta (…). Subtle movements (…) combine with moving music to create a beautiful, touching moment.”
