Avant la nuit / L’Oiseau de feu

It’s a dance performance.

There are 12 dancers on stage.

The show is in two parts.

Part One: Before Nightfall

We meet a family.

The parents want to protect their children.

But the children must also grow up.

Children must learn to:

• make their own choices,
• do things on their own,
• be free.

In this first part, there is electronic music.

Part Two: The Firebird

The dancers enter a strange, sometimes dark world.

In this world, the children face dangers.

The children must learn to:

• think for themselves,
• make their own choices,
• say no when something doesn’t suit them.

Igor Stravinsky composed the music.

He is a Russian composer.

The show deals with:

• family,
• protection,
• freedom,
• growing up.

There are no words.

The dance and the music tell the story.
