Boléro / Rachmaninov / Solo, Julien Lestel Company, 2016

Solo is a choreographed piece that allows the audience to witness a dancer confronting his or her self. Their dance brings us into the dancer's interior world. Part-human, part-animal, the dancer seems to have come from some other world: a kind of fantastic being that could just as easily arise from the sea as from the desert. Pictured: Marco Vesperini.
