Eight dancers, driven by live electronic music, paint an energetic and relatable portrait of today’s youth. Themes such as identity, coexistence and change take on a striking, physical form. The performance culminates in a moment of celebration, where audience and performers literally share the stage.

After the success of 'PORTRAIT', with more than 170 performances in France and beyond, Mehdi Kerkouche now presents 360°, a unique poetic, visual and immersive experience.

In 360°, Kerkouche breaks away from traditional choreographic codes and taps into the immersive energy of a concert, amplified by the electronic sound world of Lucie Antunes. The audience stands around a circular stage and is drawn into Emmanuelle Favre’s grand scenography.

Through a series of vivid tableaux, eight dancers sketch an intense portrait of contemporary youth - a generation eager to be heard and represented. Somewhere between utopia and dystopia, their voices and bodies merge with the audience, exploring the challenges, desires and contradictions of a world in transition.

Their movement invites the audience to reflect on what it means to live together. The performance culminates in a festive gathering where dancers and spectators, like festival‑goers, dance side by side to shape a sense of collective action. As Mehdi Kerkouche puts it: “I want an experience where the audience feels just as alive as the performers …”
