HIPPO.CAMP
With a team of five dancers and a musician, Éli Lécuru continues his material reflexion around mutation, trouble and rituality. How to make a collective body? How to renew our imaginaries? What does today mean the ritual ? Transform, be together, take strength? A group of hybrid figures, representing a multiplicity of genders, advances on stage and retraces for the public his meeting and his adventures. Loss of orientation, learning a dance in common, general apocalypse and exchange of identities are the steps of of a fresco renewing our representations.

Éli Lécuru
Éli Lécuru is a transmasculine French performer and choreographer. He started to deal with stage materials long time ago, first with theater, next with dance, somatic practices and performance. He also got a long academical path, with politic sociology and anthropology, he still taint his artistic work and sensibility. HIPPO.CAMP is his third dance project, where he continues to approach hybridity, collective transformation, politic intimacy and to researches a choreographic vocabulary between fiction and abstraction.
