la complainte du givreLa

Simon Renaud (amour amour)’s la complainte du givre is a creation meant to sit on the thin line of fiction, abstraction, dream and reality. Two women jump body and soul in a work which aims to explore the vulnerability of relationships across spectrums, touching upon the ghosts of what love, friendship, absence leaves us, their memories in our body, their forgotten traces that resurface. 

The performance is punctuated by audio excerpts from a residency in Denmark in 2020, as one performer learned to dance and the other to sing. It aims to show the tensions of the past through what’s heard, the insecurities of each in the face of their abilities, but also the candour of these women and the laughter that can occur at any time. This experience hopes to present a gift, the rarity of being able to witness the beginning of an adventure that unfolds and continues to grow before our eyes.
