Adesso basta !

Claude Mouriéras has chosen iconoclast images that describe with humour and lucidity his exasperation shout : “Enough !’

The iconoclastic images selected by Claude Mouriéras describe with lucidity and humour the choreographer’s exasperated cry: “Adesso basta !” (Now, that’s enough!) To a music by Thierry Robin, the scenario calls on the actors/dancers of Christophe Haleb’s company, La Zouze, who find themselves directly confronted with the small estrangements of everyday life.

What do people live in an apartment, an office, a couple? Domestic disputes, collective hysteria, intimate solitude and entangled nudities parade in counterpoint to soft musics with traditional anchorings. Christophe Haleb’s search relates to the need to act and to invent an alternative to reality. In his works as in Adesso basta !, he contrasts with the stress of urban ways of life, a sort of imaginary ecosystem.
