Les Ballets de Monte-Carlo - "LAST WORK"
Friday 13 December 2024, at 7.30 pm, Grimaldi Forum Monaco
2024/2025 Season - Monaco Dance Forum. The sheer energy and density of Last Work by legendary choreographer Ohad Naharin are infused with an ephemeral aura. A sensation of clarity and reflection, like the calm at the eye of a hurricane. Unflappable, a person in the background runs across a set for the whole 70 minute duration of the piece. Seemingly fleeing or dreaming of flight, the body remains locked on the spot. Perhaps symbolising the desire for progress?

This analogy of nature and technique is a central theme in the work of Francisco Tropa, which focuses on the way in which an image appears and is perceived.

Theatre - "Moby Dick"
Thursday 12, Friday 13, Saturday 14 December at 8 pm, and Sunday 15 December 2024 at 4.30 pm, Théâtre des Muses
Moby Dick is a true literary masterpiece, not just a fabulous adventure story but a study of obsession. Captain Ahab relentlessly pursues the whale that took his leg, driven by hatred and fury, dragging his crew with him into the maelstrom of his quest for vengeance. This captivating tale is one of a rite of passage, and is as deep as it is wise, asking existential questions about what it is to be human, and forging a new myth in the collective memory: that of the white whale.

Les Ballets de Monte-Carlo - "DANCE MARATHON"
Tuesday 17 December 2024, at 7.30 pm, Théâtre des Variétés
2024/2025 Season - Monaco Dance Forum. First popularised in the 1920s and 30s, dance marathons saw couples attempt to keep dancing continuously for as long as they could (simply swaying or stepping were allowed), in the hope of winning a prize of around one hundred dollars. The crash of 1929 brought such grinding poverty that participants were prepared to go to any lengths for a few bucks, turning normally joyous dance marathons into horror balls.

Les Ballets de Monte-Carlo - "MADE IN OSLO"
Wednesday 18 December 2024, at 7.30 pm, Grimaldi Forum Monaco
2024/2025 Season - Monaco Dance Forum. For over three decades, Oslo Danse Ensemble was Norway's most popular dance company. Paradoxically, they never performed outside their home country. When the company closed in 2018, it begged the question: how could Norway expect the world to understand its national culture if it remained such a closely guarded secret? Jo Strømgren Kompani has taken on the challenge of remedying that situation, bringing together a selection of creations by Jo Strømgren for this company in a triple-header "Made in Oslo".

With a sound reminiscent of LCD Soundsystem that's been described as Polo & Pan meets The Beach Boys, his electronic indie pop-infused world is the kind of entrancing, dreamline place you never want to leave.
