UK/ Charleroi Danses, “Kiss & Cry”
The Barbican, London
25th – 28th June 2014
“From prizewinning filmmaker JACO VAN DORMAEL and choreographer MICHÉLE ANNE DE MEY, Kiss & Cry’s blend of live cinematography and distinctive physicality has caused amazement worldwide. A marvel of illusion and emotion, where a pair of dancing hands are the stars of a sweeping film created live on stage.”
“Alone on a station platform, a woman recalls her great – and once forgotten – loves. Her memories take shape in a miniature world where toys, figurines and everyday objects have the power to delight. Scaled-down sets provide the backdrop for a duo of dancing hands that flirt and intertwine, becoming tender characters in their own right. Caught on camera by a bustling crew, their sensual ballet is projected on a panoramic screen, lending dual perspectives to an event in which artistic disciplines collide.”
Performed in English. 80 mins. Tickets can be booked online.
