tHE PRETTY 1

Five bodies move to the rhythm of a metronome. Their mechanical gestures are endlessly reprised, the machine runs wild and demands their absolute compliance. With her ripened artistic language, Catherine Gaudet surrounds herself with her loyal collaborators to explore the false pretenses of the show business apparatus. With her ripened artistic language, the choreographer seeks a space within bodies where desires can be reborn despite the burden of constriction. — Compagnie Catherine Gaudet
