Les Echo-liés : Positive Energy

At L'InterValle: Les Echos-Liés ignite the stage with Positive Energy

At L'InterValle, we are delighted to welcome Les Echos-Liés for an evening carried by the pulse and playfulness of Positive Energy. From our vantage point as a venue that prizes multidisciplinary performance, this company’s fusion of hip‑hop dance, acrobatics, physical theatre, and mischievous humor feels perfectly at home on our stage. Their hallmark is momentum—bodies vaulting into canons of movement, comic asides blooming into tight choreography, and a storytelling rhythm that keeps the audience alert and smiling. This season, the troupe is on the road with a refreshed touring edition of Positive Energy, fine‑tuned for live rooms like ours: nimble scene changes, crisp transitions, and a score that supports both spectacle and intimacy. In recent months, Les Echos-Liés have been busy expanding their creative footprint with short-form video capsules and in‑studio research that feed directly into the show’s evolving sequences, offering returning audiences new surprises while preserving the group’s signature camaraderie. From our technical rehearsals to the first cue of the night, we can feel the production’s care: the calibrations in lighting, the dynamic sound beds that ripple beneath beatbox textures and percussive footwork, and the visual gags that flash by as swiftly as a freeze or windmill. It is a production built to travel yet tailored, in each city, to the architecture and acoustics of the host hall—exactly the kind of live encounter we champion at L'InterValle.

What awaits you on the night: flow, humor, and a room charged by movement

Positive Energy has the joyous, all‑ages spirit that our audiences love, and our team has configured the room to bring you close to the performers’ finely tuned musicality and comic timing. Expect a kinetic collage: breakdance grounded in precise technique, acrobatics that reframe the stage into vertical space, mime‑inflected sketches that bloom into ensemble passages, and sly audience interplay that keeps the evening wonderfully unpredictable. The troupe’s dramaturgy favors momentum—set pieces blend into miniature comic scenes; illusions and slow‑motion tableaus punctuate bursts of athletic dance; and group numbers surge with the call‑and‑response of hip‑hop theater. Our lighting plot emphasizes their clean silhouettes and quick shifts in tone, while the sound design balances bass‑driven tracks with the crackle of live rhythms so you catch every beat, slide, and breath. As an artistic snapshot right now, Les Echos-Liés are embracing a touring rhythm that alternates large‑scale theaters with community‑minded spaces, and they continue to cultivate educational encounters around movement and rhythm, a focus that informs the show’s generous spirit. If you’re joining us at L'InterValle, arrive ready for a performance that speaks without barriers: little ones laugh at the sight gags, dance lovers savor the craft, and everyone feels the contagious voltage that gives the production its name. From the first downbeat, you’ll sense why this company’s reputation has been built not only on athletic prowess but on the warm, participatory rapport they create in the room—an energy we are proud to amplify on our stage.
