In this latest creation by American director Faye Driscoll, she confronts us, to dizzying effect, with a sensory whirlwind. Weathering choreographs our bonds of reciprocity and seals a destiny which is of a necessarily common nature.

In the centre of the space is a white mass, which might be a simulated block of ice or an end-of-the-world raft. On it, ten performers use their intertwining bodies to slowly build up images, tableaux vivants born from a queer imaginary world. Fingers slip into a mouth, a trickle of drool drops down a back, hands grip a collar, and gasps evoke as much suffering as pleasure. In a cascade of chain reactions and interdependencies, each micro-event has repercussions on this group which is in a permanent state of morphing. Under a harsh light, the audience, seated all around, becomes completely caught up in this 360° installation of breaths, vocal harmonies, flesh, sensualities, smells, liquids and objects. In this way, Weathering makes perceptible what is much greater than us, namely that of a weather system that binds us all together, along with its disruptions, and frenzied, out-of-control occurrences. Amidst this chaos we are now facing up to and for which we share the responsibility, there is no turning back. Cataclysm has become more than just a probability.
