Forward

This piece incarnates the perpetual struggle of being, faced with searching for ways to evolve and change. The dancer is overwhelmed by the desire to keep moving forwards – an obsession brought to life through the body. Finding himself in unstable surroundings, the dancer is torn between his different emotions. Each step forwards is a struggle.

Beaver Dam Company / Edouard Hue currently has six pieces (solo, duos and group pieces) that tour worldwide. He is artist in residence at ‘L’Auditorium Seynod – Regional Stage’ since 2016.
