Le Contraire de Un

Le Contraire de Un is a romantic, rebellious act in public space. The performance combines the code of urban dance with a silent theatrical language that makes the story accessible, poetic and universal.

A man sits quietly on a bench, reading his newspaper. Then a woman arrives — a revolutionary spirit, determined to push the boundaries of order and restraint. In this piece of dance theatre, Lisa Da Boit and Rudi Galindo plant a bomb beneath the quiet conventions of a world drifting ever further from reality. The bench becomes a stage for dreams and moments that reflect our presence in the world. Don’t be surprised if your own longings and visions of the future rise to the surface — along with unspoken vulnerabilities and emotions.
