In April 2016, the company embarked on a unique adventure: participate in a meeting between professionals from different regions of the Arab world WITHIN THE BIPOD FESTIVAL in order to develop an artistic and human exchange. A dozen contemporary dancers from Syria, Palestine, Jordan, Tunisia, Egypt and Iran, or even Lebanon and Morocco, will make up the cast of Sideways Rain for several weeks during a road movie tour starting from the Chouf mountains, passing through Amman and Ramallah, before ending in Jerusalem.

Be Sideways

All things are cyclical, everything has an end; all things ultimately depart and expire before re-emerging or being reborn under a different form at a given time or place. Collapse, dissolution, renewal, transformation. A group of individuals tumbles into renewal, drawn hypnotically by an invisible force. An allegory of life in constant movement and transformation becomes progressively manifest. An abstract idea becomes symbolized by concrete gestures. Fall and recovery bring us back, ultimately, to the primary condition of Homo erectus.


Tout est cyclique, tout fini, meurt et s’éteint avant de ressurgir ou renaître autrement de manière ponctuelle. S’effondrer, se dissoudre, se renouveler, se transformer. Ce groupe d’individus s’affaisse vers le renouveau, aspiré hypnotiquement par une force invisible. Une allégorie de la vie constamment en mouvement se révèle. Une idée abstraite est représentée par du concret. La chute et la récupération ramènent finalement notre condition primaire d’homo erectus.
