Bell Square Calling: FRANCE

Join us for the first event in a new annual festival: 24-27 Sept Bell Square Calling: France A new annual outdoor arts festival that spotlights the best outdoor artists and companies from a particular country or region alongside a programme of post-show talks. Tonight it is Bell Square Calling: FRANCE Thu 24 – Sun 27 September 2026 A festival of outdoor performance from France Thurs 24 Sept, 7pm (55 mins) Cie Point.Bart – Fièvre (Fever) (50 mins) Post-show meet the artists/Q&A, 8pm Company based: La Rochelle “They dance endlessly, until they are exhausted.” Fièvre (Fever) is inspired by the real events of Strasbourg in 1518, when hundreds of people were gripped by an uncontrollable compulsion to dance. Six performers allow themselves to be carried away in continuous excitement; a common pulse, almost crazy. Together, they create, fall, get up, support each other, exhaust each other, merge into each other. The individual dissolves into the energy of the group, beauty is born in a shared chaos.
