Lacrimosa

Shows

Lacrimosa draws inspiration from Michel Fokine's famous choreography, The Dying Swan, to music by Camille Saint-Saen, a choreography that focuses its fascination on the condition of death and rebirth. On this dichotomy between death and rebirth, the performance aims to push us to reflect on the end of the feeling of love, an impulse that returns us to our daily solitude.
