Les Traceurs – Escalinatas De La Universidad De Guanajuato, Guanajuato City

About this event

Les traceurs is an outdoor work by French choreographer Rachid Ouramdane. For this Festival Internacional Cervantino presentation, the page describes a version created especially for the festival that brings together acrobats from the Chaillot company and artists from Mexico. The Escalinatas de la Universidad de Guanajuato function as the performance environment rather than as a conventional theatre stage. The adaptation is built around direct interaction with the urban setting: the artists intervene in the natural and architectural landscape, and the physical actions respond to the site in which the audience encounters them. The production focuses on physical limits, extreme concentration and the relationship between the body and the space it inhabits. The FIC page identifies the Chaillot company and Mexican artists collectively, without naming the Mexican performers individually. The credit "Coproducción con la creación original: Grand Palais CMN" is retained as an original-creation coproduction credit.
