A brand-new dance performance at the Théâtre Fémina

Follow a ballerina as she literally escapes from her music box to discover a whole new world for herself. To find herself. Like a doll – a symbol of a discipline where every movement is dictated and measured down to the millimetre – the ballerina flees from the very thing that shaped her. She discovers herself through a series of encounters. As she traverses new spaces, she encounters new worlds, discovers other ways of dancing and other ways of existing on stage.
Step by step, how does one break free from the constraints of traditional ballet to find one’s own path – a dance that is uniquely her own?
A new impulse springs from within. An impulse from the heart.
A ballet that isn’t quite so classical after all. No Prince Charming, no predetermined path, no imposed rules. A quest for self, a ballet of crossroads. Here, it is not about replicating an ideal, but about questioning what dancing really means. With others, with oneself.
It is an invitation to see ballet from a new angle, to try to step outside the box and the conventions, and make way for the unexpected and for laughter.
