Liévine Hubert works with around 60 local residents and three actresses in a surprising form of collaborative choreography in public space. It’s a short and startling street show, a powerful yet subtle collective ritornello.
BIOGRAPHY
Le Geste Qui Sauve is a Belgian expressive movement theatre company founded in 2012 by graduates of the École internationale De Kleine Académie (Brussels). Today it is directed by Liévine Hubert. The company produces plays and performances for all ages, often taking its productions outside the theatre and into exhibition and public spaces. These productions are visual, stripped back and simple (Écho, Le laboratoire de l’ordinaire, l’absent). The company also explores movement, as part of its Laboratoire de l’ordinaire, and conducts workshops and seminars. Le Geste qui Sauve creates interaction with a wide audience, and develops participatory projects like No Regret. Liévine Hubert also sings for Les Divas Dugazon and recently worked with the contemporary dance company, Louma (Rennes), alongside choreographer Alain Michard.
