Based on the personal experience that a dancing body provokes a state of intense joy and jubilation, the du feu de dieu collective has imagined an immersive, participatory, and playful performance to mark the 40th anniversary of far°. Let’s Dance is an itinerant show, guided by two mad choreographers who will take you on a dancing stroll through Nyon’s town centre. Along the way, you will dance simple choreographed pieces to a euphoric playlist, create lively tableaux, feel powerful emotions, and above all… learn to let go!
“All dance induces a modified state of consciousness, a kind of trance. It transforms us because it invigorates us. It’s not for nothing that the Greeks called ‘enthusiasm’ – which means having God inside you – the trance that dance can put you in.”
