“The virtual projections are not mere stage effects, but partners for the performers.”

Virtuosic dance and cutting-edge video technology collide in this mindblowing masterpiece from Compagnie Käfig. Founded by renowned choreographer Mourad Merzouki and based in Lyon, Käfig is known for blending Hip-hop, contemporary dance, and even cirque arts in fresh and surprising ways. In PIXEL, 11 outstanding dancers interact with a breathtaking, three-dimensional landscape created by innovative projection mapping. Not merely stage effects, the projections are partners for the performers in a thrilling, acrobatic duet that blurs the line between the real and virtual worlds. The result is breathtaking choreography and imagery that expands on exciting possibilities at the intersection of performance and technology.

ABOUT COMPAGNIE KÄFIG

A leading figure in the French Hip-hop scene since the early 1990s, choreographer Mourad Merzouki works at the crossroads of many disciplines including circus, martial arts, visual arts, video, live music, and Hip-hop dance. He founded his Compagnie Käfig in 1996 and has since created more than 30 works that have captivated audiences in France and around the world. Named for the Arabic and German term for “cage,” the high-flying Käfig is anything but tied down, pushing the boundaries of Hip-hop while never losing sight of its roots.
