Dive

Dive submerges the stage in a choreographic wave that draws its source from the instinct of the choreographer and the performers of the piece.

This new creation by Edouard Hue is a deep exploration of the origins of intuition, its catalyst, and its influence on our choices. The performers are in perpetual visceral questioning about the existence of being, which magnifies the raw and virtuosic choreographies. The choreographer takes advantage of this intimate, almost autobiographical subject for the dancers to open his creative process to the audience on stage and make them dive deeper into the universe of the piece.

After various independent projects, with Dive, Edouard Hue returns with his Beaver Dam Company to his source choreographic writing, powerfully transporting the audience from one emotion to another in a cocoon of suave intimacy.

«[…] this piece takes you into the deep groove of a delightful pleasure of movement».
