According to former Belgian karateka Johnny Cadillac, the ¾ face is THE defense position par excellence! Loraine Dambermont appropriates this principle and delivers her personal survival guide to the expectation of chaos, revealing the most infallible secrets of self-defense. Toujours de ¾ face! is a self-deprecating one-woman show that challenges the performer’s physical and mental virtuosity, pushing the limits of a body forced between the endurance of a marathon of movements and the extreme precision of its own musicality.
