Les bacchantes
Dance-theatre or theatre-dance, this is a performance that has fun playing with the idea of a feminine cosmogony cooked up by five self-taught bacchantes who are both nymphs and Amazons.
Fiercely independent and captivating, they are the daughters of the goddess Rhea. The Mother, the Virgin Warrior, the Queen of the Sea, the Goddess of Nature and the Snake Woman step into a great hotel, a sort of private, exclusive men’s club. Everything conspires to make their initiation disturbing, yet delicious. With humour, sensuality and utmost seriousness.
