The Canadian choreographer Edouard Lock, a star of the eighties, has managed to give a new twist to his style, projecting it onto new territories without losing its wildness in the process. When the women, and even the men, dance on points, they perpetuate the turbulent impatience of the bodies which has become the trademark of his company, Lalala Human Steps. 
At the meeting point between two icons of the classical ballet, "Swan Lake" and "Sleeping Beauty", Edouard Lock invents a new tale of love, fate and death, in the Forest of Fantasy. His new show "Amjad" will be performed by nine dancers to Tchaikovski’s music remixed by the composer David Lang. text by Jeanne Liger Amjad creation
