Upshot

Coproduction

2021

As part of the 2021 Recovery plan

Upshot is interested in the behaviors, norms and postures of an individual in relation to a group. Alternately excluded, included, marginalized and using their own and distinct choreographic vocabulary, each dancer interprets different social roles depending on the codes they have and those they must acquire to join the group. The movements and the body then become a way of presenting oneself to the other, of talking about oneself, of starting a dialogue. Upshot confronts the individual and the group, the degrees of inclusion or exclusion and takes us on an exploration of symbolism and self-representations.
