Synopsis:
Alexander Ekman choreographs this Paris Opera Ballet performance of the modern ballet by Mikael Karlsson, recorded live at its world premiere at Palais Garnier in Paris. A sparkling personality on the contemporary dance scene, Swedish choreographer Alexander Ekman has been invited for the first time to work with the dancers of the Paris Opera Ballet. His language, both visceral and tinged with humour, combining theatricality, and classical and contemporary vocabulary alike, perfectly resonates with the incredible versatility and stage presence of ballet: the result is Play, a piece that evokes the world of childhood and its careless pleasures.
But beyond pure entertainment, this performance contemplates the meaning and the importance of play when we become adults...For this new creation, Alexander Ekman worked with his acolyte composer Mikael Karlsson, but also with a talented team of instrumentalists not often seen on the stage of the Palais Garnier, among which gospel singer Callie Day, and the incredible drummer and marimba player Adelaïde Ferrière.
