Tonny A's Version of Me is coming to Brussels!
Version of Me is premiering at Grand Hospice in Brussels on the 08th, 09th & 10th May 2025. Version of Me is a dance piece conceived and performed by French dancer and live artist Tonny A.
The solo performance is a sensual, physical and sensorial self-portrait which explores the concepts of identity and nature of self through a fusion of dance improvisation, butoh and performance art.
Set in La Chapelle du Grand hospice, Version of Me dissects, questions and ultimately recompose a fractured picture of the nature of self.
Tonny says: “Exploring my identity and my physicality is one of the constant themes in my work. With this piece, I’m looking into it from the inside, trying to tap into hidden areas of my body, into my senses, into my personal vision of my place in society, in the current artistic landscape to come face to face with the nature of myself. It’s not a revival. It’s not a plea. It’s survival.”
