ALSO AVAILABLE IN LIVE STREAMING
Each of Alan Lake’s stage creations is the fruit of a rigorous hybrid exploration in three stages, where movement, images, visual art and original music interact and enrich each other in a subtle alchemy. Between fable and allegory, L’effritement des parades, freely inspired by the myth of Persephone—goddess of the underworld, associated with the cycle of the seasons, life and resurrection—is a symbolist odyssey in which delirious imaginings, eroded ambitions and disenchanted ideals come aground. A voluptuous and exuberant dance unfolds. Is it a bacchanal, a pagan ritual, a primitive ceremony? When the parade of appearances falls away, something true and luminous emerges from these extravagant chimeras, bringing us back to the very essence of being. Strangely beautiful.
