"This is a research project in which the twelve male dancers of the Company have taken part:
- work on the male aspect
- work on the body, especially.
The stage punctuated with 6 tables (working tables? dissection tables? tables of contents?) will be an area of questioning, for examining a recurring intensity faced with a world where galloping virtuality is taking over from physical experience."
