La Foule (French : the crowd) is a 15-minute performance about the way people navigate the chaotic, ever-shifting, yet repetitive landscape of contemporary life – juggling overwhelm, distraction, joy and perseverance in a surreal, collective experience. It shows how, both as a group and as individuals, we struggle, get sidetracked, discover moments of pleasure and keep pushing forward despite the absurdity of the situation.
La Foule is a humorous, tragic-comical dance-theatre piece and a creative process that aims to bring together professional and non-professional dancers and performers, as well as anyone with little or no stage experience, in an easy-going and fun project that creates community and delivers a brief, yet marvelously grand show.
