UNITE 777

Credit : C.Keip
Unité 777 is a piece about human and animal biological experiments. Its name comes from the Unity 731 in Mandchouria during the WWII where vivisection was made on human prisoners. Here the subject is extended to all experiments on sensible beings (human and animal) from the past and nowadays, the suffering being the same. In the whole piece audience can see a group of entity in their life before and after experiment, how the feelings, bodies and the group itself change.

​Is it moral to do it on animals ? On Humans ? On Humans considered inferiors ?
Generally on any beings considered inferiors ? These are the questions we want to ask with this choreography.
​Dance is between animals and humans. The movements are inspired by primitive instincts.

The audience will follow the transformations of a group of beings. Some want to fight, others resign or treat.
​
Violence is not shown on stage, theperformance is open to all.
