Bolzano Danza 2026 - Louise Lecavalier
DANSES VAGABONDES
She danced with David Bowie. With Frank Zappa. At 66, she may be dancing better than ever. Louise Lecavalier built her reputation in the eighties and nineties as one of the most electrifying performers in contemporary dance — a collaborator of rock legends, a stage presence that left critics without adjectives. Since 2006 she has led her own company, Fou Glorieux, pursuing a practice rooted in virtuosity and physical intensity.
danses vagabondes is her latest solo work, and it arrives at Bolzano Danza trailing rave reviews. Inspired by physicist Carlo Rovelli's Écrits Vagabonds, it is a 65-minute meditation on time, memory and the body as a living archive — but don't let that description lead you to expect something quiet or contemplative. Lecavalier does not do quiet. From the moment a grey screen turns white and a figure appears on stage, you are in the presence of something that happens very rarely: a performer who has spent forty years perfecting the art of making audiences forget to breathe.
