“In the Middle” by Marion Motin and Swaggers

Le French May Arts Festival 2017

Description

Description

Hip-hop is a tough game in which only the best survive. In the heavily male-dominated hip-hop industry, principal dancer and choreographer Marion Motin has set out to demonstrate that in a universe of Hip-hop, women can ‘own’ the place.

Motin constructs In the Middle like a movie with light a key part. Marion Motin uses spotlights to mimic the flashing lights of cameras in order to intensify the atmosphere. She loves images and displays that defy obvious explanations – indeed, she describes the show as “a multitude of emotions, encounters, stages, as well as music, images, gestures …”, allowing her audiences to contribute to making their own interpretations.

Cross–border choreographer, Marion Motin started lessons in classical dance at just five. In 1996, she started dancing on the streets realising her passion for Hip-hop. She has worked with pop sensation Madonna and Belgian singer Stromae, which expanded her hip-hop opportunities. In 2015, she also collaborated with Christine & The Queens for her tour Chaleur Humaine.

The performance will last for approximately 1 hour with no interval.
