Ke co co co is a large-scale collective experience.

Is the collective joyful? Overwhelming? Beautiful? Dangerous? Crazy? Restrictive? Senseless? Magical? Complicated? Exhilarating? Inevitable? Exhausting? Indispensable? It’s a mess! So six artists have gathered 150 people with their voices, their bodies, and their emotions, in a 360° empty arena, to shed light on our dreams and nightmares, and perhaps, together, delay the end of the world! Very loosely inspired by the vocal and choreographic percussion choirs of the island of Bali, this creative experience will be presented for the first time at Les Invites de Villeurbanne on June 19 and 20, 2026.
