In contrast to previous Philippe Saire creations, 'Could I just draw your attention to the brevity of life?' performs a delicate upheaval of the normal conventions of entertainment and plays on them in a light yet precise way. What is the driving force of our lives and universal need? And in answer to the question posed in the title, a surprise finale, a sort of reminder of the fragility of this universe.

Zeros & Ones
Developed in the Winter 2008 in Bangalore, India's 'Silicon Valley', this piece highlights the digital divide separating e-haves and e-have nots.

Burning Skin
Many different forms of movement have influenced the choreography in Burning Skin - the martial arts, ballet, modern dance, bharata natyam as well as Roger Sinha's own unique vocabulary based on improvisation.

Quebasian Rhapsody
In a fluid form of movement mixed with various dynamic accents, the choreographer deconstructs the controlled and formalized techniques of Bharatanatyam and integrates it into his own personal, explosive and very fast movement style.

Minimini (turning around and around)
Minimini is about an experience of the life of the choreographer, Serge Aimé Coulibaly. In traditional African societies, when you want to express something strongly, you start with speech and when this is not sufficient you move on to dancing and singing. And sometimes you reach a trance-like state.

In Between Skin
Do you get sun burnt? Indian women do not laugh this loudly.What language do you dream in?
The suitcase contains dance and text making it a theatrical performance with a strong dramatic undertone.

I lost my English
I lost my English deals with cultural alienation and the intellectual dominion and the social and economic oppression that language can contain. When the way these words sound suddenly speak volumes about your history, your country and perhaps nothing about what those words mean in the dictionary.
