Cie Hervé Koubi

In the spectrum of athletics to theater, this troupe of 21 male dancers scores a perfect 10 in athletics.  Choreographer Hervé Koubi draws from the street dancing of his native Algeria, as he sends his dancers spinning on their heads, tossed high into the air, and performing other physical feats which cause TMJ to the viewer.  But somehow in spite of the spectacular physicality of the dancers, there is a tenderness to the choreography which is unexpected.  Run, do not walk, to buy tickets if they perform near you.
