Artistic Direction: Virginie Brunelle
Through a rigorous movement vocabulary, Fables offers a sometimes harsh, sometimes poetic vision of women’s ongoing struggle.
Against the backdrop of the chaos of an era turned upside down, the piece projects us into fantastical spaces from which larger than life characters emerge — contemporary female archetypes who paved the way to freedom from invisible yet real barriers. A universe of great evocative power, echoing a crying need for utopia, hope and humanity.
