Ad Libitum, Latin for “as desired”, conveys the desire of Simon Le Borgne and Ulysse Zangs to reinvent themselves and leave behind their cultural prejudices to personify an abundance of new, less expected figures. Meticulously they attempt to listen to their feelings and construct a choreographic and musical work full of raw, primitive emotions.
