With a couple of dancers/musicians, Laura Bachman presents the sense of touch in different forms. From the energy circulating in bodies to its absence, from carnal passion to violence. Humanity in all its forms.

Personal, epidermal, erotic, irritating, taboo, contagious ; touch point with the outside world, the sense of touch holds a world of meaning and information. Such is the heart of the choreographic experience Ne me touchez pas, putting two dancers and two musicians facing each other. Trained at the Opéra de Paris ballet and recently cast in films (Wes Anderson’s and Cedric Klapisch’s), Laura Bachman and Marion Barbeau meet accordionist Vincent Peirani and percussionist Michele Rabbia in a game of light touch and human warmth capable of expressing the complexity of our relation to another body.
