Performances

Mother Tongue by Pierre Geagea

From May 22 to May 23, 2014
8:00pm -> 9:00pm
Institut Français du Liban

“Mother Tongue” is a solo dance performance that fuses the corporeality and unpredictable rhythmicity of contemporary dance with the gracefulness and expressive fluidity of sign language.

The brain-child of Lebanese dancer/choreographer Pierre Geagea, “Mother tongue” interweaves pulsating dance moves with gestural speech, experimental soundscapes, onstage acrobatics, and narrative video projections, to sketch a portrait of a deaf dancer and his entirely unique and inspiring relationship with sound and rhythm.
