Mobilizing the format and legacy of the cabaret genre, the Chez Michou project intertwines the image of the French singer and drag artist Michou with a poetic reflection on disorientation. The bodies on the stage activate a queer spatiality that erases the border between the inner and outer world, between abstraction and the reality of fiction. Guiding the imagination in the confusion of identity, the choreography reveals a cartography of dislocation saturated with vivid textures of objects, gestures and words. The collapse of heteronormative structures is radicalized through the possibility of flesh to oppose fixed coordinates and perform a subject that is somehow out of place.

The choreographic language is associated with the mystical insights and screenwriting actions of the cult American director David Lynch. Dramaturgy supported by musical quotes from feminist and activist icons: British music diva Annie Lennox, female post-punk band Le Tigre and iconic queer synth pop ensemble Visage Chez Michou functions as an invitation to lose ourselves, celebrates the disappearing horizon and returns to the affective territories of Otherness.

The performance work "Chez Michou" is accompanied by a Choreographic Object / Object called SPOMENAR / Queer Archive of feelings as its complementary, but also independent part.
