Tam Tam
Like a homage to the senegalese choreographer and anthropologist Féral Benga. Four dancers evolve in space on an original musical production, based on works of Erik Satie.
In the form of homage to the Senegalese choreographer and anthropologist Féral Benga, of which dreamed was, in the Thirties, to create a made up company African dancers, Tam Tam endeavours to recreate the universe of the artist without telling his story. And one feels and one tests heat. The undulation of the bodies lets the spectator taste with the influences of the African traditional dances. Four dancers draw space curves like infinite caresses, sensual movements of hips and wrists. James Carlès, despised territories and borders, it nourishes his work of the meeting of the languages of the body, Tam Tam is also an original musical production starting from works of Erik Satie.
