On the Matter of Flowers

Collective creation

A choreographic journey for two virtuoso performers who merge in a skilful assemblage four writings for a single stage proposition.

On the Matter of Flowers (La question des fleurs) was born from a questioning: in pandemic times, how to build a positive and bright scenic proposal, like a bouquet of flowers? The response was to create a collective work bringing together Andrea Peña, Christophe Garcia, Dominique Porte and Ismaël Mouaraki, and the performing couple Daphnée Laurendeau and Danny Morissette. These dance composers come together in the physicality and excellence of their choreographic work, which is expressed in a unique way in each of them.
