Drawing creative strength from his Algerian roots and Mediterranean culture, French-Algerian choreographer Herve Koubi has assembled an exceptional all-male company of Algerian and West African dancers versatile in contemporary, street, and urban dance, capoeira, and martial arts. In the critically acclaimed Les Nuits Barbares (The Barbarian Nights), choreographer Koubi takes a deeper look into the history of peoples around the Mediterranean and the truth behind the stereotypes of those historically considered "barbarians".
