The Ballet National de Marseille, under the direction of (LA)HORDE, is delighted to be part of the 2026 Festival de Marseille program with its new creation : Après moi, le déluge.

The piece emerges from a moment of upheaval, a fragile time in which the world seems to be losing its footing. Under the weight of crises and collective exhaustion, the bodies of thirteen dancers waver, fall, and come apart before anything has even begun.

Moving against the flow of time, the dance then attempts an impossible journey backward, as if to outrun catastrophe and halt the process of decay. To bring this vision to life, Marine Brutti, Jonathan Debrouwer, and Arthur Harel, the three choreographers of the collective (LA)HORDE, unfold a large-scale scenography

The stage is transformed into an echo chamber of a powerful aesthetic, immersing the audience in an extraordinary experience. From this journey emerges a collective energy, a new way of being together, and the possibility of a shared joy.
