Kurz vor Weihnachten wird´s nochmal kuschelig in der Ida –
mit der Performance Strip-tease von Alice Pons und Jean-Lorin Sterian.

Strip-tease is a series of short solos exploring the well-known concept of striptease. More than just a performance, the piece becomes an intimate moment shared with the audience, a social gathering, a strip-tease of the concept itself. Trough different approaches, the show will strip and tease the performer, as well as the audience, the body, the human, the emotions and thoughts; it will explore and question the border between the performer and the audience, between intimacy and perfomativity, inciting the different representations of the seductive self.

Alice Pons is a young French performer and choreographer. Graduated from the Conservatory of Paris in contemporary dance in 2007, she worked during one year in France as a performer before coming to Amsterdam to study choreography at SNDO (School for New Dance Development) where she made few of her main performances like Meat, The Invisible Dance or, the last one, Trudge in collaboration with Quim Bigas. She received recently the danceWEB sholarship 2012, part of the international festival Impulstanz as well as The fond podiumkunsten Ontwikkelingsbeurs from Netherlands and la bourse Jeune Talent from Noisiel, her hometown in France as a support and recognition of her work. She performed and presented her work in Mexico, Brasil, Netherlands, France, Austria, Germany. She is very active in the Netherlands where she took part in different festivals like Springdance, with the work of Deborah Hay or Something Raw with Ann Liv Young and Benoit Lachambre. In July 2012 she graduated from SNDO.
