In his ''dancing'' play Grand Singe, Nicolas Cantin's universe imposes its difference and its main characteristics: minimalism, tragicomic humor and meticulous work on the performer's presence... This hybrid presence tells about the encounter of a man and a woman and is a testimony of Cantin’s talent for capturing rifts and human absurdities. A young creator pushing the limits of genres, Nicolas Cantin audaciously ventures on the slippery slopes of intimacy. By stretching time and betting on the extreme presence of his performers, he unveils the dark side of fragility.
