Ascension is a social project for 8 young LGBTQI+ people supported by the Le Refuge foundation throughout France.
During a week of training combining high mountain sports activities and theater, young people have the opportunity to question their poetic and sensitive relationship with life.
Our starting points are the notions of vertigo, limits and freedom. We propose to question society, the individual and its tensions, evoking areas of turbulence to assert poetic power. Mountain experiences are our playground and allow us to understand the following situations and reflections on the board: games on stability and perception, landmarks in space, coordinates between the physical body and action cerebral, the body and its environment and gravity as a theatrical and choreographic experience.
