Belgium's celebrated Mossoux-Bonté company present the UK premiere of their latest work. In the depths of the earth, men and women tear themselves out of the shadows and from the stone in which they were imprisoned. Nuit Sur Le Monde describes the secrets of the body, the strangeness of existence and the mystery of death. It is the final part of a triptych whose first two sections, Don't Touch Me and We Are Rushing Towards Death have already been shown to great acclaim, winning the Critic's Prize at the 2007 Mimos Festival. Nicole Mossoux and Patrick Bonte have been creating performances at the crossroads of dance and theatre since 1985. Seen in more than 30 countries and also on film, their work explores inexpressible feelings and sensibilities with a strange familiarity that grips the spectator's imagination. 'With Mossoux-Bonte ambiguousness, double-meaning, everything which could disturb our perception and feeling is brought into play, with underlying humour and a deluge of visual beauty and sound' (Soir).
