About the event
In Arabic, lila means “night”. These ceremonies are a set of nocturnal rituals of spiritual healing, combining song, dance and music, traditionally found in certain Maghreb countries. Ismaël transposes the rites and codes of these danced rituals onto the stage, infusing them with his signature contemporary urban dance style to reveal the vulnerability and sensuality of the male body. Infused with the flavors and colors of Morocco, the artists transform the show into a moment of true celebration, where the exaltation of the bodies unfolds through contagious energy.
