Circus & DanceWritten and interpreted: Eric Lecomte g = 9.81m/s2: This is the g constant of terrestrial attraction discovered by Isaac Newton, a force that accelerates mass towards the centre of the Earth. Behind this enigmatic figure there are the laws of universal attraction… The author plays on stage with the influences which determine the human being and with what surrounds him. One single number for a multitude of trajectories… It is in fact a journey between heaven and earth that is offered to us by Eric Lecomte by mingling with virtuosity the circus art, dance, games with objects, the theatre and screened images, he redraws the beauty of the gesture in itself. As an explorer, and with a perfect control of movement, he hisses himself, slides. He is weightless, climbs, crawls, jumps, flies and drills…… 9.81 is the creation of another reality, where movements are thought of differently, where the boundaries between the ground and the earth fade away , where gesture makes sense, far beyond the laws of gravity. The stage becomes a playground, a microcosm where both the animal and the human being are involved: the musical atmosphere consists of a mixture of music and natural sounds that echoe the artist’s movements which are at the same time reptilian, feline and human-like. In front of this poetic fresco mastered by the chameleon dancer, the spectator is simply mesmerized.
A confirmed circus artist, Eric Lecomte first experienced interpretation with the Circus of Doctor Paradi. Attracted as a young man by dance, street dance and acrobatics, he created and developed steps of air dance, stunt-flying dance, climbing dance with the company Olivier Farge, Ex Nihilo and Retouramont. In 1998, he joined the company Cahin-Caha and jointly signed the writing of two shows "ChiencrU”, and then "Grimm”, in 2003. Wishing to live his own artistic experience, and after having spent two years in research and experiments, he is the author and interpreter of "9.81”. The 9.81 Companie will present its show in the framework of a regional tour to Bandung, Bangkok, Jakarta, Manilla, Ventiane and Yogjakarta. |
