Le Patin Libre carves a new kind of contemporary ice-skating. Since a decade, we tour the world with this disruptive fusion of athleticism, virtuosity and total creative freedom. No sparkles.
Threshold uses the astonishing time-bending effect of glide to explore the liminal moments when things change, when accidents happen and when new emotions emerge.
The Bank of America Winter Village at Bryant Park offered us the opportunity to present a special al-fresco version of this internationally celebrated piece.
Because we're proudly dedicated to public availability of contemporary art, the performances can be viewed for free by standing spectators.
75 VIP seats will be reserved for donators wishing to support this Manhattan premiere (online purchase here)
We also keep a special place for local community groups (contact us if interested).
After the performance, the artists will welcome VIP seats holders on the ice for an ice-dancing party. Free skate rental. Beginners and experts alike can take advantage of playful choreographic workshops that will turn the rink into an immense and joyful dance floor.
