l'un contre l'autre

Duration : 1h15

Born from the desire to rewrite the lost notes of The Canticle of the Creatures by Francis of Assisi, L’Un contre l’Autre unfolds as a choreo-musical score where dance, singing, live music and the art of drag intertwine.

On stage, four artists weave a dialogue between opposites — sacred and profane, masculine and feminine, human and creature — giving rise to a polymorphic figure: the Creature, a reflection of our inner dualities and our search for unity.

In this sensitive space where the body becomes an instrument and the voice transforms, the audience is invited to cross an immersive, poetic and political experience.

Confrontation turns into transformation, the duel into dialogue, and otherness reveals itself as a creative force.

The piece explores the fertile tension between heritage and invention, between memory and metamorphosis, questioning the place of the living in a world in crisis.

At the crossroads of contemporary dance, lyrical singing, drag performance and live music, L’Un contre l’Autre continues Cie Essevesse’s approach: a hybrid, poetic and socially engaged dance that bridges the intimate and the collective, the human and the mythical.

A sensorial journey where the dream becomes lucid — and where meeting the other becomes an act of resistance and hope.
