Le Salon revisited

At the head of the company Peeping Tom, Gabriela Carrizo and Franck Chartier work at the border of theater and contemporary dance. In their shows with high emotional potential, the apparent realism of the sets contrasts with the dreamlike strangeness of the situations and bodies that haunt them.

With The Salon revisited, they recreate a piece from the early years 2000 to reinvent it in a new configuration with five performers. Three dancers, an actor and a singer make up the members of a family revolving around the figure of the grandfather, patriarch aristocrat on the decline.

In a decadent salon, wounds and desires, cumbersome inheritance and relations of domination are expressed through a broad, expressive and feverish gesture.
