Gameboy | Cie Sylvain Huc – english

Gameboy are men who meet up to play with their bodies, their strength, their fragility or their absurdity; men who show the male body as charged with desire, tension, abandon or monstrosity; men who reflect on their absolute singularity or the social roles to which they submit; men who swagger or who offer themselves as subjects to be studied; men who question the images, representations and plasticity of bodies; men who open a space where they talk about themselves and their condition. This week-long workshop aims to question the issue of gender in other universities and countries and produces a new performance each time.

 

“Directed by Sylvain Huc, an exclusively masculine distribution […] deconstructs with furious vitality the images, both intellectual and physical, associated with virility.” Gérard Mayen, À corps Festival, Poitiers (April 2016)


Designer, choreographer, lighting designer Sylvain Huc
