"A poetic performance at the intersection of dance, theater, and music. A show from another world that leaves no one indifferent." - Thomas Bastien

Through the creation of the multidisciplinary work ‘L’effritement des parades,’ Alan Lake Factori(e) revisits his choreographic language at the crossroads of dance, cinema, and visual arts. In this new opus, the choreographer gives birth to raw and symbolist worlds in which the human being, deeply influenced by their environment, evolves. A true immersion in a dreamlike atmosphere, ‘L’effritement des parades’ tells an elusive symbolist narrative filled with altered imaginings, eroded ambitions, disillusioned ideals, and subverted hegemonies. Yet, something luminous and true calls and reminds us of the immanence of being in its powerful simplicity.
