About the work
Our bodies are overwhelmed. Constantly called upon, yet rarely brought together.
Les Tisaneurs brings five young performers together in a physical and collective quest: to rediscover breath, rhythm and connection. Inspired by the traditional knowledge of Réunion’s tisaneurs — herbal healers — the work transforms gestures of care into a choreographic language in which dance becomes a remedy to be practised and experienced.
The work follows a generation seeking ways to stand, connect and transform the overload of its time into collective energy.
