L'écho des racines by La Sporée / Sarah Bronsard joins our dance offerings in Quebec.

We are delighted to announce the arrival of the multidisciplinary dance company La Sporée / Sarah Bronsard with its latest production, L’écho des racines (The Echo of Roots).

L'écho des racines is a choreographic project born from a fruitful dialogue between flamenco and Quebecois stepdancing. Bringing together eight experienced dancers and musicians, the work explores the links that implicitly unite these two traditions, while questioning the limits that define them in time and space.

On stage, the performers move through a network of wool that gradually transforms over the course of their exchanges. Inspired by an underground phenomenon observed in forests, wool symbolizes hyphae (mushroom roots), which allow trees to communicate over great distances through their roots through mycorrhiza.
