Roof Piece
Year of production
2015
Year of creation
1971
In the early 1970s, choreographer Trisha Brown, a SoHo pioneer, created site-specific dances reflective of her changing neighborhood. Her work-in particular her choreographic feat Roof Piece, performed along SoHo’s skyline-reflected the shifting sociohistorical moment.
Celebrating the reopening after works of the French Centre national de la danse (CND) in Pantin in October 2015, the audience is invited to discover a choreography on various roofs in Pantin. Performers wearing red costume transmit from a roof to another some movements improvised with a telegraphic gesture, revealing by this way the architecture around.
