The Flight of the Red Balloon
Multi-talented French actor Juliette Binoche and British dancer–choreographer Akram Khan have collaborated on a new dance work that incorporates music, singing, and acting. Akram, who acts and plays guitar in the performance is admittedly inexperienced in both pursuits, and Binoche is known for many talents other than dancing. But as Binoche explains, “What we had in common was our fire for the new.” The pair co-direct and co-perform In-I, which debuted in September in London and comes next week to Brussels’ La Monnaie, the Belgian National Opera.
The set is designed by artist Anish Kapoor, whose photography we incorporated into La Monnaie’s program for fall 2008. As part of our ongoing work with La Monnaie we’ve designed the poster and program for the event, at La Monnaie from November 11–13.
