“A stunning jaw dropping fusion of acrobatics, gymnastics, bboying, modern dance, and ballet.”

–THE WASHINGTON POST

Bold, masculine, and thrilling only begin to describe the work of Hervé Koubi. Now a true TITAS favorite, there’s simply no other internationally touring dance company doing what Hervé Koubi and his dancers do on stage. Drawing from his Algerian roots, Koubi’s signature work What the Day Owes to the Night is surprising, deeply moving, and jaw-dropping all at once.

The piece blends capoeira, martial arts, urban dance, and contemporary movement into something entirely its own. Twelve powerful male dancers from around the world take the stage, flipping, flying, and seemingly defying gravity— and expectations—at every turn. The imagery is breathtaking, inspired by Orientalist paintings and the intricate stone patterns found in Islamic architecture. Koubi weaves these influences together into a rich and complex work that follows its own path.

The return of Hervé Koubi is eagerly anticipated and warmly welcomed. A TITAS Favorite through and through, this is without question a performance you won’t want to miss.
