Presentation

|2022 Creation

Philippe Decouflé injects Stéréo with rock energy for a new frenzied creation. Guitar, bass, drums: an electric discharge going through the bodies of seven young performers.

It’s a hybrid form between a concert and a show that choreographer Philippe Decouflé imagined with Stéréo. In the back of the stage, a rock trio - guitar, bass and drums - unfolds a dream setlist that brings together the Beatles, T. Rex, the Beach Boys and a lovely bunch of original compositions. In the front, won over by this forever young energy, the seven dancers deploy treasures of creativity to keep up with the pace throughout a composition equally inspired by punk, cinema and circus. Supported by a dream team (notably spectacular costume design) and staying true to his generous and kaleidoscopic style, Philippe Decouflé multiplies visual and playful findings. It is an entire collective imagination that is here revisited and re-vitalized with joyful spirit. A perfect physical translation of music, with pleasure as its sole guide.
