The performance "Aristophane," created in 2020, offers an intriguing perspective on the myth of the same name, in which Zeus is said to have separated men and women. By revisiting this ancient narrative, the show explores themes of identity, love, and the complementarity between genders.

One of the key aspects of the performance is the celebration of a woman's journey, Elena Thomas, on the brink of giving birth. The choreography highlights the power and beauty of motherhood, showcasing how a pregnant woman carries within her two living beings, thus endowing her with a special connection to the divine. This idea underscores the creative power and duality of life itself.

The duration of the performance, a 40-minute duo, allows for a concise yet intense exploration of these themes. The artistic performance, combining choreographic movements, music by Franck 2 Louise, and minimalist stage design, provides an immersive experience for the audience, inviting them to reflect on the concepts presented and to experience a range of emotions.

Self-taught, David LLARI founded the Maison du Hip-hop in 2006 in Paris. In 2008, in Marseille, he established his company, Sun of Shade, which later became BDPC. The dancer's selfhood is at the core of his artistic approach. What matters are the dancer's uniqueness, the gesture, and the intention behind it. In 2016, he was awarded the Critics' Prize at the international choreographic competition in Hanover.

Thomas BARBARISI is an artist and dancer known for his distinctive style within his discipline. Following his hip-hop training with David Llari, he has sought to draw inspiration from various other influences. His solo performance titled "SLAVE," choreographed by David Llari, received critical acclaim and won the Critics' Prize at the international competition in Hanover. Today, he is part of BDPC, where he is involved in developing a method that places the identity of the performer at the heart of the creative process.

Jean GOMEZ is a writer, director, and editor. After his film, Sing Sing, he makes short films, documentaries, and also records performances such as the Jazz Festival of the Five Continents or in venues like the Zénith de Strasbourg. He follows the company along its journey to tell its story and explore its universe through original creations.

The contemporary physical dance ballet was created in 2015 by the choreographer and author David LLARI.

Contemporary physical dance is a language that relies on the intention behind the movement. The danced motion, imbued with authenticity, breaks free from all existing forms of dance. The dancer, in their full selfhood, can then serve the author's pieces.

Resulting from choreography driven by anticipation and research, the choreographies of BDPC offer a unique perspective on the world and society. Beyond dance-specific stages, BDPC performs in locations such as public spaces, monuments, museums, or urban areas less accustomed to cultural events. BDPC has recruited its dancers internationally, from countries including France, England, Germany, and Italy. The company has its composers, a team of audiovisual technicians, administrative staff, and a network of occasional collaborators from various artistic disciplines.
