The company led by choreographer Rafaële Giovanola is known for its excessive exploration of the human body and movement. In "Standard", an examination of ballroom dance as the embodiment of humanity and civilization, dignity and discipline, everything is turned upside down: the bodies as well as our image of dance. CocoonDance rethinks the standardized body images of standard dance in order to overcome them. The resulting alien-like creatures lead us into a world of fluctuating elegance.
