Trio 03 / Odile Duboc / Danse / Composition

« A quiet, innate theatricality was evident from the first moments of Trio 03, the opening dance, which was inspired by Natalia Goncharova’s painting The Wrestlers. Three wrestlers (Bruno Danjoux, David Drouard and David Wampach) move, very slightly, as a huddling clump of bodies in an atmosphere made eerier by Pascal Contet’s subdued score. Small, buried events like minute pullings-away or the extension of a flattened arm are as eye-catching and absorbing as the biggest leap. »
