Alain Platel returns to Luxembourg with this piece that brings together choir, dance and music in a creative dialogue. The stage is dominated by a gigantic tree imagined by the artist Berlinde De Bruyckere, in whose shade the performer TK Russel sings and evolves as a point of articulation with the dancers. The whole piece is accompanied by the OPL, whose music adds an extra layer of meaning.
