La danseuse / The Ballerina is a machine-theatre play, a theatre conceived from the moving object, based on the combination of technique and art. The play develops from a seed, the machine. In the Company’s own words, this is “a powerful aesthetic bid and an exhibition of mechanical beauty, linked to completely free playwright, aiming to touch each viewer’s soul”. With one actress as accomplice, one Dj and a wooden ballerina, symbol of feminine freedom and power, the show invites the audience to join the party and dance alongside them.
