THE SHOW

THRESHOLDS

Théâtre Incliné is a visual theatre company. Its artistic creations, driven by poetic images, explore a fragmented space where matter, body, light, sound, and music are the constituents of a vast canvas. Each new project draws its impetus from the different territories that inspire the company's creative minds, José Babin and Alain Lavallée. L'Incliné works with artists from different cultures through co-productions with France, Italy, Japan, Norway and the Gaspé Peninsula.

In Collaboration with Danse K par K 

Founded in Québec City in 2005 under the artistic direction of Choreographer Karine Ledoyen, Danse K par K is a company dedicated to the research and creation of contemporary dance. The company is sensitive to developing its dance community, and creates cultural outreach projects.

“There are people. Probably. Without a doubt. Yes. People… Looks like it. Anyway, I think so. We watch them through the walls. They act out their lives, their doubts, and their burning desires. All of them, at the edge of something.” 

“It could be an ordinary bloc apartment, with lives stacked against each other, but the walls and the stories are disappearing. Some will melt into others, waiting for the coming dawn. It’s about people observing other people. It’s about a moment, frozen in time, and hands touching.”
 

“Threshold offers a tender look at a complex humanity at the edge of their lives.

The sun is rising
It’s a blue day.”
 

Thresholds

Show in Creation

A scenic and interdisciplinary work that brings together dance, theatre and skateboard, Threshold expands artistic boundaries. José Babin composes a living, murmuring, and moving fresco created in collaboration with Choreographer Karine Ledoyen. 

Inspired by stories written by Marie-Louise Bibish Mumbu, Julie Vincent, and Marie-Hélène Larose-Truchon, Thresholds explores the turning points, the transitions, the imbalances, both intimate and collective. A suspended moment where bodies and experiences collide.
