Phénix: When Hip-Hop Meets Baroque
On April 18, 2027, Stage Magic presents one of the latest creations by French choreographer Mourad Merzouki at Cirque Royal.
With Phénix, choreographer Mourad Merzouki pushes the boundaries of dance disciplines. Both poetic and explosive, this creation brings together four dancers and a live viola da gamba on stage, creating a surprising dialogue between urban dance and Baroque sounds.
“I wanted to bring together completely opposite disciplines in order to create a light and singular form. In an intimate atmosphere, the artists cross their worlds and present a unique work, elevated by their alchemy.”— Mourad Merzouki
Phénix was first presented to audiences in September 2022 during the Festival d’Ambronay in France. Since then, the production has become a true favorite on international stages. In an intimate, almost chamber-music atmosphere, the artists move through space in spirals and rotations, crossing worlds and giving birth to a new form that is both light and daring.
Phénix is intended for a wide audience aged seven and above. The performance invites audiences to take a fresh look at dance, music, and the space that connects them.
