Details

Alain Platel founded Les Ballets C. de B. in 1984. A dynamic dance and theatre collective, the company is renowned for its powerful theatrical dance performances. Argentinean dancer and choreographer Lisi Estaras has worked with les ballets C de la B for 12 years. Here she makes her UK choreographic debut with primero - a brand new work inspired by her own attempts to recall her childhood years. This intimate work mixes dance and text as the personal experiences of five performers are interweaved with children's stories. Intrigued by the way a child's mind can naturally jump from one thought to another, unpredictable and seemingly without logic, Estaras will attempt to translate this state into movement.
