Fascinating in their precision, enthusiasm and virtuosity, the artists of Le Patin Libre now number 15, and they’re as fast on their skates as ever! In this show, they emulate the patterns of flocks of birds. High-flying, breathtaking skating.
Murmuration is the new show of the contemporary skating company Le Patin Libre. The canadian premiere will happen in Montreal, in a hockey arena specially converted into a theatre.
Recently applauded at the Venice Dance Biennale, Murmuration regroups virtuosic skaters from 8 countries. They become an epic incarnation of harmony, war and peace.
