Diavolo company members are dancers, gymnasts, actors, athletes...and always teammates. Under the guidance of artistic director and founder Jacques Heim, they have collaboratively developed works on oversized, surrealistic sets and structures. Everyday items such as doors, chairs, and stairways provide the backdrop for dramatic movement-leaping, flying, twirling-to create metaphors for the challenge of relationships, the absurdities of life, and the struggle to maintain our humanity in the shadow of a technological world.
