Why would you put up a fight when you know in advance that you will be left broken? Person Longing for Human is a plea for an unarmored approach to impetuous love and life.

Desire is the driving force in Charles Pas' visual dance performance Person Longing For Human. Three performers pursue lust in all its various forms. Dreaming of complete fusion and self-preservation, they explore the richness of love.

In a vigorous choreography, the body is continuously possessed by Eros. A quest where both pain and happiness are felt simultaneously. The battlefield of Person Longing for Human finds a plea for the unarmored approach to tempestuous love and life. Why go into a battle when you know in advance that you will be left broken?


 

"A spectacle as fascinating as it is moving, whose every turn surprises. In the act you recognize doubtful infatuation, then lust, a lovemaking, but also loneliness. You see that fierce physicality, which can be peculiar to mimes (Pas did the mime training), with bodies as the source of action and movements that seem electrically charged. Thus the performers collide again and again in a chilling tour de force."

NRC

"A sweetly strong piece of work with which Charles Pas both stupefies and intoxicates. Tastes like more and mead."
