Sylvie Guillem/Robert Lepage/Russell Maliphant - Eonnagata
Work:: Sylvie Guillem/Robert Lepage/Russell Maliphant (S682280194)
Production:: Eonnagata (T814043792)
Supported by Rolex. This remarkable Sadler's Wells production brings together three of the world's foremost creative minds: internationally acclaimed dancer Sylvie Guillem, world-renowned theatre-maker Robert Lepage and award-winning choreographer Russell Maliphant.
Eonnagata tells the story of the Chevalier d'?on, Charles de Beaumont - diplomat, writer, swordsman and a member of the King's Secret, a network of spies under the control of Louis XV. De Beaumont was perhaps the first spy to use transvestitism in the furtherance of his duties and, until the day he died, his true gender was a source of constant speculation, even provoking public bets in the late 18th century.
