What more could we want in difficult times of doubt and uncertainty than a pinch of joy? Joy Enjoy Joy doesn't spare a thing. It is a vibrant celebration of boundless life. And in her new work, we recognize the Flemish choreographer's original contemporary theatrical language combining lighting effects, video, movement and text. In the rhythm of electronic music and the contagious energy of eight dancers, the joy of life seems inexhaustible. But it wouldn't be an Ann Van den Broek piece if it didn't show the other, painful and melancholy side of our lives. How can we resist the haunting idea that this exuberant party cannot last forever?
