<p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px; line-height: 1.65; max-width: 87.5%;">On the programme: the performance <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Promises, the screening of the video series <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Promises b2b[/i], and a film adaptation of their new piece <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Sham3dan[/i].
<p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px; line-height: 1.65; max-width: 87.5%;">In<em style="box-sizing: border-box;"> Promises[/i], the choreography expresses a promise that remains unfulfilled. Slow, intense movements depict a delicate search for harmony, tenderness, disappearance and renewal, where every attempt at synchronisation seems destined to fail before being reborn. A moving exploration of our relationship with time, between waiting, repetition and the <span style="box-sizing: border-box;">longing for togetherness.</span>
<p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px; line-height: 1.65; max-width: 87.5%;">With <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Promises b2b[/i], the duo deepens this exploration through a series of videos featuring duet dances. The space between the bodies becomes a playground and a source of tension - a symmetry in motion, between connection and dissonance.
<p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 15px; line-height: 1.65; max-width: 87.5%;">Finally, <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Sham3dan[/i] takes us on a spellbinding choreographic journey inspired by Egyptian shamadan dance. Nine performers advance in balance, candlesticks on their heads, between popular traditions of the 1920s and contemporary gestures. Set to a soundtrack by Ismail Hosny, this piece depicts collective gravity, where shared movement becomes a form of silent resistance.
<p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; line-height: 1.65; max-width: 87.5%;">The programme is presented in two identical sessions at 7pm and 8:30pm, to discover the duo's universe in an intimate atmosphere.
