PROGRAMME
Although we live in a multicultural and globalised society, we exist more and more next to each other instead of spending time with each other. In Ratatouille the interaction and communication is not only subject to dance but is expanded through Karine LaBel's other passion: the culinary delights.
The shared cooking and eating creates an atmosphere with open discussion about topics such as migration, segregation, identity, asylum, escape, etc. and people with diverse social, cultural and political backgrounds can feel free to talk about their personal life experiences.
The Senegalese dancer Djoutala Seydi and the Haitian Karine LaBel have already been working together on a number of projects. Their combined experience, the combination of their cultural backgrounds, the meeting of feminine and masculine concepts lead to a dynamic and communicative shared dance project.
