C(h)oeurs



Classic Alain Platel
A typical Alain Platel piece with the dancers of les ballets C de la B and the Chorus of the Teatro Real, Madrid, that is full of symbolism and makes a statement on the way individuals and groups feel silenced and how they find ways to demonstrate with and without words in protest against the things that are happening in their countries today. For example, the throwing of one shoe, or the pinning of a red target to themselves. The accompanying booklet has an excellent article explaining the philosophy behind the piece.
