Every so often a performance arrives that changes the way we see theatre. With its own particular mix of alchemy, eroticism and intellect, this is an exhilarating, angry fifty-minutes of theatre that refuses to be left alone. A dance theatre piece for one actor, a dog and a set with three dog corpses. Featuring music by the vitriolic French singer Leo Ferre, the Pixies, a text by Georges Brassens and a sensational performance by the Argentinian dancer Valeria Garré], My Movements are Alone Like Streetdogs is one of the latest performances by the enfant-terrible of European theatre, Jan Fabre. Since the mid-1980s, Fabre has carved an explosive path across opera houses, ballet groups and experimental theatre across Europe, with his provocative stagings that attempt both to seduce and repel with an unrelenting force. A mixture of carnival and funereal that abuses and comforts by the grace of its own dark poetry.
