For 2017’s edition of ToiToi, ŻfinMalta presents ‘Ballon et l’Âme,’ a short contemporary work inspired by Beatrix Potter’s tale of Peter Rabbit.
ŻfinMalta’s Creative Resident Artist, Niels Plotard, choreographs Ballon et l’Âme, which will be performed by the apprentice dancers of the company.
The performance will be followed by a 30-minute workshop, during which students will be given the opportunity to explore movement using the ideas developed within the piece. Schools wil be supplied with a short resource pack to supplement this workshop.
À toi mon ballon
Comme mon père je cours après l'envol
Comme mon frère je brave les dangers
Comme ma mère je te protège, toi mon réservoir de souffle de vie
Une quête, un rêve, ... grandir
To my balloon
Like my father I flee to find flight
Like my brother I brave perils
Like my mother I protect thee, my vessel of life's breath
A quest, a dream,... growing up
Duration: 30 minutes
