Lasseindra Xclusive Lanvin Ball voguing
Lasseindra Xclusive Lanvin is a voguing luminary and pioneer of the Ballroom scene in Europe who started her career in New York, the cradle of the movement. She went on to play a crucial role worldwide. International mother of House of Xlusive Lanvin, she returns to Chaillot with a bang as host of an exceptional Ball in the Foyer de la Danse.
A powerhouse of the international ballroom scene, Lasseindra Ninja embodies a rare artistic and political force that elevates voguing beyond choreographic practice. It is an act of visibility, resistance and identity affirmation. Through her performances, Lasseindra explores the full spectrum of voguing, including Old Way, New Way, Vogue Fem as well as the codes of balls, the categories, the postures and the stories in them. She doesn’t merely perform virtuosic dance, she summons a living memory, that of the LGBTQIA+, making the issue of empowerment through the body central to her work.
Her choreographic work is a crosspollination of the raw energy of the Balls and a sophisticated scenic language. The onstage movements are precise, bold and theatrical, challenging gender norms, revealing the tensions of the gaze and asserting plural identities. By cultivating an ultra-expressive body language, she examines both the representation and the perception of the minoritized body.
On Chaillot’s stage, her presence resonates like a celebration of protesting and partying bodies. She instills in the season’s program a transformative and liberating power by affirming that dance can be a revolutionary gesture.
