Denis Plassard invents a choreographic game with a criminal backdrop, and invites spectators to carry out an investigation to unmask the dancer/culprit!

Denis Plassard isn’t just a choreographer, he’s a player too. The proof? This new piece, in which he transforms Cluedo into a giant Cluedance. With his habitual sense of mischief, he has devised seven choreographic propositions – reconstructions of a crime scene – and invites the spectators to have fun scrutinising the dancing in detail to unmask the culprit – the dancer who does the same thing in every scene. The clues and evidence essentially pertain to movement. But be warned: he’s laid some traps!

The scenes, in the form of danced short films, take place in very different atmospheres. This artistic challenge reflects the choreographer’s concerns: play, constraints, humour, the linkage between choreographic writing and narrative – all with a new objective, namely sharpening the spectator’s gaze. A goofy boards game.
