Anchor (2018)

 

 

The duet Anchor delves into the complexities of relationships. Playfully probing the tensions between passion and security, wants and needs, fantasy and compassion, within the life of a couple.

In Anchor, Elsa Couvreur and Mehdi Duman play, dance, scream, laugh, but above all, sing a song we all know the lyrics to.

 

Anchor is a collaboration with Cie Divisar - Mehdi Duman.

 

Anchor is available on streaming platform Dramox. Watch the show online!
