FAIRFIELD — A dance performance named for the “invincible sun” deity and celebrating the power of human love will week to inspire audiences next week.
Compagnie Hervé KOUBI’s Sol Invictus will take the stage at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 18th at Fairfield University’s Quick Center for the Arts. The company includes members from France, Algeria, and other locations around the world and draws creative inspiration from Hervé Koubi’s Algerian roots and Mediterranean culture.
Sol Invictus combines “contemporary and urban dance movements, capoeira, and martial arts with powerful imagery and inspired choreography.” The performance “upholds love as the guarantor of peace, that despite fracture, communion emerges as humanity’s saving grace.” Sol Invictus‘s musical score includes a composition by Swedish composer Mikael Karlsson, with excerpts by Steve Reich and digital composer Maxime Bodson.
The dance company previously visited the Quick Center in 2017 to perform What the Day Owes to the Night. For more information on the Sol Invictus performance, click here.
