Ballet Biarritz, Creation  Tickets

In the beginning, the first man was born a dancer. He danced alone until the first woman became his partner. Together, they created new movement, and the dancing was nicer. Thus begins Thierry Malandain’s evening-length ballet Création — set to Beethoven’s The Creatures of Prometheus — which reimagines humankind’s awakening and its exit from Paradise as the evolution of dance: from the first court dances, to the codification of ballet and then to the modern dance liberators of the new world. This audacious, enchanting, poetic and earthy dance showcases the athletic sensuality of this remarkable French company.
