Fêu

Fouad Boussouf - Le Phare - CCN du Havre Normandie

Le Havre
dance

Remembering a swarm of dragonflies swirling around him as a child, Fouad Boussouf launches ten dancers into a never-ending, almost mystical circle dance. They begin in the twilight, then move into the light, revealing their febrile presence. The swarm buzzes powerfully near the fire, glimmering at the risk of burning its wings...

When Fouad Boussouf began working as a choreographer, his body remembered the rhythms of his childhood in Morocco when he took part in spectacular evening celebrations involving states of trance where you reveal your true self by transcending usual notions of physical power, virtuosity and aesthetics. He passes on this unique experience to his dancers, creating a communion of mind and body. His previous success, Näss, and today Fêu, are living proof of this, combining the exaltation of the individual body with the incandescent energy of the ensemble. Näss was danced by men, Fêu by women, all under the influence of perpetual movement: a continuous inner impulse, an unrestrained cadency, a phenomenal rhythm and pulse. In this joyful round, singularities are blurred, giving way to the collective strength "of union, of communion", which the choreographer prefers. The dancers breathe in harmony and movements follow in sequence, carried along by an electronic soundtrack composed by François Caffenne. At the same time, however, these bodies are liberated within the constraints of the circle: a paradoxical situation whose boundaries the choreographer explores with cries and warlike gestures in a dance piece that resembles a blazing carousel.
