Pénélope, wife of Ulysses, the model of the submissive wife who stays loyal to an absent man? Among the most important choreographers of contemporary French dance, Jean-Claude Gallota revisits Homer’s myth as well as the long-standing codes of classical ballet. Turning his back on the immaculate purity that characterized the production of Ulysses that made him famous, Gallotta’s Pénelope offers a darker, more vital counterpoint. Electrified by sensual impulses that are magnified through moments of acceleration, repose, lifts, and stillness, the ten artists deliver a joyous and uninhibited performance.
