Saigon Zoo and Botanic Garden
No 2 Nguyen Binh Khiem Str, Dist 1, HCMC
From Institut Français de HCM Ville:
Francobelge dance company t.r.a.n.s.i.t.s.c.a.p.e (Pierre Larauza + Emmanuelle Vincent) will present a new version of their mixed “Urban Distortions” show, a collaboration with Bong Sen theatre and dancers.
Around a transparent inflatable balloon, the artists take us into a world where cultural difference and contaminated territories are sources for poetry and love.
This Francophonie Day is an opportunity for t.r.a.n.s.i.t.s.c.a.p.e to present their first step of collaboration with Vietnamese artists in order to create a platform for mixed art “The Centriffugeuse” in HCMC.
t.r.a.n.s.i.t.s.c.a.p.e was founded in 2003 in Hong Kong in a meeting between architect/director Pierre Larauza and dancer/choreographer Emmanuelle Vincent, wishing to combine the dance, architecture and cinema in choreographic plays and films. Their creations are distributed internationally.
Performance recommended by HCMV during the framework of Francophonie Day, with the support of Wallonie-Bruxelles International and “Truong Son” group of Vietnamese people in Belgium.
Free entrance.
