Rather a Ditch

Echoing the hypnotic Steve Reich album Different Trains, Clara Furey directs Céline Bonnier in a sensual, visceral solo full of the silence of what has been lost. Woman as landscape, woman as machine. Waiting for the train, or the train itself. A jerky, jolting journey of the body set to frenetic music. And then, silence. Echoing the hypnotic Steve Reich album Different Trains she listened to as a child, Clara Furey directs Céline Bonnier in a visceral, existentialist solo. What if we had taken the wrong train? How do survivors cope with guilt and gratitude? Furey examines the questions Reich asks about the sacrificed of history, probing the fragility of our destinies. The silence resonates with the profound solitude of humanity facing itself after the chaos. Paying meticulous attention to breathing, to the subtle bursts of energy in the paper wall imagined by the visual artist Caroline Monnet, Clara Furey explores the body’s states of being, carving a new language into the abyss. Spare, vibrant, magnetic. Clara Furey is affiliated to Par B.L.eux.     Individual tickets will be on sale March 29, 2019.
