CUTLASS SPRING begins when Michel noticed that the curiosity she had for sex as a child and a teenager had slowly faded in her adult life. When and how that happened, she doesn't know either. That was the starting point of her new dance solo, where she wants to give herself sex education again.
In earlier works, Michel analysed the suppression of cultural identity. Now she makes the connection between the experience of sexuality and all the ways in which it is suppressed from outside (and from within). She travels to places from her childhood and looks at places where sexuality thrives, such as at Jamaican dancehall parties or Berlin nightclubs. In CUTLASS SPRING Michel uses her usual courage and originality in search of her sexual self and how it affects her as a person, dancer, mother and lover.
