It’s not hard to look into the future, provided you have enough humour: like Jennifer Lacey, who sits down at a table between two candles and makes predictions in her solo “Gattica”. For example, about the fact that today’s hairstyles will look extraordinarily stupid some day. Or that, in the future, some of us will die, and the others later. And that boredom will be recognised as a mystery and an opportunity. After this allusion to the science fiction film “Gattaca”, as already suggested by the title, Jennifer Lacey dances and strikes up a cocktail party conversation. The US American choreographer from New York who lives in Paris is well-known for the way in which she conceptually processes her performances as real situations while leaving enough room for the poetic.
