Vertical été - Coeurs rouges - Compagnie Carna

Pole dancing, an object often associated with an erotic imagination, is said to be reserved for women. The practice seems to reactivate gender stereotypes. What happens when three men get involved? Does it call masculinity into question? We chose to invest this connotated space by insuf- fing a new relationship to the apparatus and to movement. The body also engages differently, and dance perhaps becomes something else... Movement is constrained by the object itself. We tried to find other physical paths, other ways of apprehending the body's circuits, in order to move towards a body that might seem more "appeased"... We drew on the work of ethnologist Françoise Héritier on gender relations. She has devoted most of her research to the foundations of hierarchical relations between the sexes. We took as our starting point the often very funny words that appear in voice-over, offering another view and another reading of what the spectator discovers on stage. I chose to bring to the stage three men who are complementary, but who come together around the common apparatus of the pole.
