Antoine Turmine
À ceux et celles qui aiment (s’)oublier

(Re)questioning the codes of gigue, Antoine treats the stage like a workshop in this informal work interspersed with moments of magic. In this percussive performance about traces, he finds his groove in the cohabitation of weight and gesture. We travel through three imaginary spaces demarcated by a small plank, an office desk, and an expansive black and white dance floor. Through rhythm and sound, the dancer manages to disappear into his music. It’s what he loves about this dance form.

François Marquis
Sans faire de bruit

A theatre director takes a choreographic turn. Composing movement as if it were a literary work in which each phrase leads to the next, but without the logic of narrative, he shapes a diffuse environment predominated by control and surveillance. Inside this intimate enclosure, it is difficult to move freely, to respond, even to exist. Four women remain united in this world where spontaneity is impeded. They must rely on one another if they are to hope, to survive and to dance.
