Muette de Boris Charmatz

In Muette, Boris Charmatz explores the multiple faces of silence: shock, restrained emotions, the violence of what cannot be said. A raw solo, nourished by intimate materials where the body struggles with the unspoken and brings forth a physical intensity that is direct and overwhelming.

Muette, written and danced by Boris Charmatz, will not be a sequel to the solo Somnole, but an extension of his commitment as a performer. A piece of minimalism as a manifesto. To listen and watch… in silence.

“It took me years to start choreographing solos, but I’m not going to stop there,” confesses Boris Charmatz by way of introduction.

” Boris Charmatz has accustomed us to exceeding expectations, daring an opus in a cathedral, an occupation of a library or the Palais Garnier, constantly seeking the resonance of bodies with the times.

A singular soloist, as evidenced by the duo A bras le corps, created with Dimitri Chamblas and still performed by the pair, Boris Charmatz makes Muette a visceral gesture. ” And he invites everyone to enter this other dimension, a choreography like suspended time.
