CREDO de Compagnie Nicolas Huchard

Plural masculinities come to light in CREDO, where eight dancers guided by choreographer Nicolas Huchard, in collaboration with Matteo Gheza, question and subvert gender assignments. Between grace and power, this elegant troupe, in its meticulously crafted costumes, shapes new ways of being a man that are subversive and joyful.

« I grew up on the fringes of an image of masculinity that did not look like me.  » This is where Nicolas Huchard started out when creating the mesmerising CREDO.

The pop-style choreographer, who for a long time worked in fashion and music – he has choreographed Madonna, Lady Gaga and Aya Nakamura – brings together eight performers to embody a multitude of shades of masculinity.

On a shifting stage that is at once a dance floor, a runway and a pole dance podium, dynamic and fluid choreographies by turns embrace and defy gendered norms.

In this reflection that exposes virility as a myth, the bodies bear witness to inner struggles between identities shaped by social injunctions and opposed to them.

Acknowledging a world structured by relations of domination, these performers explore, with gentleness and strength, paths towards emancipation. Belinda Mathieu Duration: 1h Category: Dance Music Fashion
