Pierre Rigal's R·ONDE·S at Théâtre Silvia Monfort

other · 2026-05-11

Choreographer Pierre Rigal presents R·ONDE·S, a dance piece celebrating the circle as an ancient and universal form. Inspired by natural cycles, planetary orbits, and seasons, the work creates a shared ritual that is simple, familiar, and unifying. Eight dancers, a musician, and a singer-musician explore group dynamics through repetitive gestures that can lead to a trance state. The piece examines the relationship between individual and collective via constant exchanges of looks, rhythms, and movements. Using contemporary sounds blending acoustic and amplified elements, Rigal invents a new, living folklore. The performance becomes an open popular form, inviting the audience to join the dance. R·ONDE·S runs May 20–21, 2026 at 8 PM at Théâtre Silvia Monfort in Paris 15th arrondissement. Tickets range from €5 to €28.
