"Four states of love for one woman, punctuated by three old love stories: those of Abélard and Héloïse, Orpheus and Eurydice, and the Portuguese nun. Or how to reintroduce literature, halfway between argument and libretto, into contemporary dance. Delicious, isn't it?"
Hervé Gauville in the Châteauvallon program (July 1983)
