Traces (Ultima Vez & KVS)

Artistic programme

Address: Rue de Laeken 146 Lakensestraat, 1000 Brussels | Event Map | Venue Accessibility

Performance in Spanish, Catalan or English depending on the show. You can select the language when you buy your ticket.

In Traces, choreographer, dancer and KVS face Wim Vandekeybus returns to the origins, to ancient tempers and instincts that are older than humanity and its memory. 

The intense, wordless Traces is a track that can only be followed through the pulse of dance and music. Ten dancers pulsate to music by international sensations including Trixie Whitley, Marc Ribot and Shahzad Ismaily. Together they fill the theatre with an intense atmosphere.
