Coming from the bosom of the Israeli Batsheva Dance Company or English Wayne McGregor company, Léo Lérus frees himself from his glorious elders to develop his own
personal and sensitive writing using Guadeloupean traditions and technology. He is inspired by the festive and popular on his island traditional musical performance Lewoz that dates back to the slavery period. He revisits these musical and dancing jousts where percussionists must follow the pace of a dancer, picked up from a crowd and put in the middle of a circle. In collaboration with a sound designer he develops a fresh look on the influence of dance within the sound and light environment. Rhythm and extent of the movements, body contacts and body instabilities... everything participates
in the groove without being demonstrative but with enough of modernity to prolong the Caribbean musical community. Entropie is a humanist and a deep-rooted play filled up with the creole unifying spirit.
