About
MEMENTO by the MazelFreten company arrives at La Maison des Métallos on April 23 and 24, 2027. This performance gathers six international dancers for an energetic display of rhythm and culture set to electro-acoustic music. Suitable for audiences aged 8 and up, the show highlights collective movement and artistic freedom. The venue is fully accessible, welcoming wheelchair users and providing vibrating vests upon request for visually impaired attendees. Experience this powerful choreography that blends fluid motion with meaningful human connection in the heart of Paris.
Performed by six artists from China, Russia, Cape Verde, Spain, and France, MEMENTO is an explosion of collective energy where rhythms, bodies, and cultures intertwine. On a white mat bathed in light, movements respond to, seek out, and unite with each other, drawing a sensitive and hopeful fresco.
MEMENTO is much more than a show: it is a breath of humanity and joy, a celebration of the collective and the freedom to be in motion.
Structured and atmospheric, punctuated with sensitive discoveries, particularly related to arm work, this piece, with which the duo intends to share their values, including contemplation and poetry, is savored to electro-acoustic music.
