Tumbleweed

After having been engaged in two rather big productions, their first group piece A VERY EYE (2022) and the interdisciplinary performance DEHORS EST BLANC (2023), Tumbleweed feel the need to come back to a more compact and direct form. With THRESHOLD they want to resume their physical work together in the studio and to continue developing their own language, body after body, while for the first time linking their music and dance practices. Considering that their previous works have been mainly characterized by continuity and graduation, they will approach this research with the desire for a rather fragmented and non-linear writing method, tackling the subject of erasure.

As the fourth creation of Tumbleweed, THRESHOLD is thought as a choreographic duet, scattered in time, where two performers will take turns on stage without ever physically meeting each other – like two detached phases of the same signal. In this process, they interact between two distinct scores, linked to each other by a residual effect. The relationship between the two no longer embodies a center but is revealed only by the cutting line that separates them, and by the echoes of space and time. THRESHOLD is a piece stretched into the void, a reminder of the essential role of the environment in the emergence of any form of relationship.
