BOBY BOY

Freely inspired by the musical universe of Boby Lapointe

A genial hommage to the very special world of Boby Lapointe.

Boby Lapointe, a genius of word entanglement, loves mixing meanings, and laughs at everything and everyone. In his songs each couplet can reveal the absurd, the lyrics dance, intersect, and reflect each other; they twist and turn, often revealing the tenderness hidden at the heart of things.

Whether indulging in a good laugh or making clumsy blunders; whether in mad dances or in crazy discussions; the two dancers of Boby Boy call to each other, confront each other, or brush against each other in this performance where visual images and the two dancers' bodies join in a happy mix with Boby Lapointe's songs and texts.
