Laban Theatre is delighted to welcome back one of Europe’s leading dance figures, Raimund Hoghe, as part of Dance Umbrella 2010. Following last year’s mesmerising performance of L'Après-midi to the music of Debussy, Hoghe returns to the South East London venue with the much-anticipated UK premiere of his new duet, Sans-titre. Hoghe has invited Congolese choreographer and dancer Faustin Linyekula to perform with him in Sans-titre.
The title alludes to being ‘without papers’ or an illegal immigrant, and the work is a poignant and quiet complaint. The minimalist set and poetic use of objects contrasts with the captivating, fluid beauty of Linyekula, whose nimble and loose-limbed expression fills an otherwise sparse open space. Accompanied by the music of Bach, a path is forged through this touching and contemplative landscape, revealing a tender relationship between the two very different performers.
