Three Family Shows Featuring Acrobatic Dance

Biscarrosse’s cultural season will close with a dynamic lineup of family-friendly performances on Saturday, May 30, 2026, at the Centre Culturel l’Arcanson, including a standout dance spectacle by the acclaimed hip-hop company Racines Carrées. The evening’s program features three distinct shows, with the company’s Ça déménage taking center stage as a highlight of the season’s final weekend.

The choreographed dance piece, directed by Nabil Ouelhadj, blends hip-hop with acrobatic movement, using a trampoline as a core element to create a fluid, high-energy performance. The show’s title, Ça déménage (which translates roughly to “It’s moving!”), reflects its experimental approach—part improvisational, part structured—where dancers engage with cartons and shifting set pieces to evoke themes of memory, displacement, and reinvention. The production has been praised for its poetic fusion of urban dance and theatrical staging, transcending conventional hip-hop choreography.

Racines Carrées, led by Ouelhadj, has built a reputation for pushing boundaries in contemporary dance, often collaborating with musicians and visual artists to create immersive works. Ça déménage is no exception, featuring original music by Arthur H, René Aubry, and Georges Brassens, alongside additional compositions by Enzo Bosso. The show’s scenography—designed collectively by Ouelhadj, Nicolas Tabary, and Rémi Touadere Ouinia—transforms the stage into a dynamic, almost kinetic environment, with costumes and lighting further enhancing the sense of movement.

Supporting the production are five dancers, including Ouelhadj himself alongside Valentin Loval, Andy Andrianasolo, Abderrahim Ouabou, and Nicolas Tabary, who also serves as technical director. The piece is a coproduction of the Centre Chorégraphique National de Créteil et du Val-de-Marne and Compagnie Käfig, under the direction of Mourad Merzouki, with additional backing from the Ministère de la Culture and the Caisse des Dépôts.

The performance at l’Arcanson marks Ça déménage’s latest stop in a broader tour that has already engaged audiences with its innovative fusion of dance, music, and visual art. For families and dance enthusiasts in Biscarrosse, the show offers a rare opportunity to experience a work that challenges perceptions of both hip-hop and contemporary performance.

The Centre Culturel l’Arcanson will host the event at 18:30 on Saturday, May 30, 2026. Tickets are available through the venue’s official channels, with additional details accessible via the production’s website (encoreuntour.com). The evening’s other two family-oriented spectacles will complement Ça déménage, rounding out a culturally rich conclusion to the season.
