Two solos, two cities : Eolipile's tour in Indonesia.
The group Eolipile was founded in 1996 by choreographer Lin Yuan Shang. Born in Taipei, Lin Yuan Shang joined the Opera of Beijing at the age of 11, specialzing in acrobatics and warrior roles.
He felt that the moves were too rigid and so he decided to explore other forms of expressions - contemporary dance and theater. In France, he met Ariane Mnouchkine and collaborated with her from 1986 to 1988. He returned to France in 1994 to elaborate his knowledge of contemporary dance with Maguy Marin, then founded the group Eolipile.
Each performance is composed of two solos. The first one, Kung Fu Dancing, was created in 2008. The second, Entre-deux, is Lin Yuan Shang's latest creation as a choreographer. He has chosen to work with a French dancer, Caroline Desmaison.
These two solos will be performed for the first time in Asia. Entre-deux was performed for the first time in France (20 'til 22 November 2008) at the Bateau Feu/Scène nationale de Dunkerque on the occasion of Rési-danses.
The CCF invites to enjoy these two performances - two nights and to plunge into the world of a choreographer inspired by two countries, Taiwan and France.
