One Song

Histoire(s) du Théâtre IV
Miet Warlop

8月 31 - 9月 2, 2023 Partner La Bâtie-Festival de Genève

In 2023, Dance Reflections by Van Cleef & Arpels is supporting La Bâtie – Festival de Genève for the presentation of One Song by Miet Warlop.

The Festival begins with an adrenaline rush. In the starting blocks of this choreographic and athletic looping, we find a violinist, a bassist, a keyboardist, a drummer, a cheerleader, a singer, a coach and a song - One Song: “Knock knock / Who’s there? It’s your grief from the past… “

This grief that comes knocking at the door is that linked to the death of Miet Warlop’s brother. She consoled herself with a performance written in 2005 called Sportband / Afgetrainde Klanken. After Milo Rau, Faustin Linyekula and Angélica Liddell, Warlop was invited to direct a piece that would synthesize her entire body of work, as part of the series called Histoire(s) du théâtre. Miet Warlop reprises the form of this requiem. Surprising for a Flemish choreographer who has been wielding absurdist humor and burlesque in unclassifiable pieces for the past fifteen years? Not really. One Song is a metaphor for a gym that dissolves all grief through a ceremonial concert, where one dances themselves into a trance.
