From collaborations with Madonna to high-energy dance scenes and reflections on technology, the (LA)HORDE collective, composed of Marine Brutti, Jonathan Debrouwer, and Arthur Harel, established itself as a leading innovator in contemporary dance. At the helm of the Ballet National de Marseille since 2019, the company lands for the first time at the Romaeuropa Festival to present excerpts from two of its most significant works: Room With a View, a powerful performance that confronts the decline of civilization with the energy of twenty-eight dancers of different nationalities and the evocative electronic music of Rone, and Age of Content, a reflection on new media and their influence on the younger generations, which mixes dance and technology in an encounter between the virtual and the physical. Physicality, lyricism, and electronic and minimalist sounds celebrate the energy of the younger generation, exploring the contradictions of our present, between chaos and connection, presence and absence.
