A new work by Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui, Puz/zle questions the seeming importance of order and linearity and explores whether there is more than one way of solving a puzzle.

One of the most prolific contemporary dancer/choreographers working today, Cherkaoui has helped produce some of the most ground-breaking works in recent years, including Sutra, zero degrees and, most recently, TeZukA.

Working closely with past musical collaborators – Corsican polyphonic group A Filetta, Lebanese singer Fadia Tomb El-Hage and Japanese musician Kazunari Abe – Cherkaoui dissects the form of composition and identifies the various themes that can shape a song.

Cherkaoui also teams up with long-time collaborator Damien Jalet, set designer Filip Peeters and costume designer Miharu Toriyama to create this long-awaited piece performed by 11 extraordinary dancers from his Eastman company.
