Real or virtual? A social-science fiction or a dance show? Shaking up all our reference points, this captivating interactive proposal questions our relationship with nature and the living.
“Something is lost, you cannot see anything, you cannot hear anything …” announces Michèle Noiret. What is gone, is the insects. This artist imagines a future where most of these tiny but indispensable creatures have not survived our man-made environmental disruption. Only a few dedicated places, where memory and the collective unconscious may be summoned, offer the possibility of raising awareness of the world before among those who never knew it. And to hope, perhaps, that we may see it reborn one day … Around this dystopian plot, the choreographer deploys a scenic writing nourished by all the technological resources of dance cinema, an art of which she is a veritable master. Visual effects, lighting and futuristic music by Todor Todoroff transform the set into a science-fiction laboratory. Filming each other live with smartphones, the performers Sara Tan and David Drouard give themselves over to various sensory experiences. On screen, their videos alternate with those of excessively enlarged insects, whose movements and postures inspire a new carnal dialogue in these two representatives of our humanity. Like an invitation to change scale and reconsider an incredibly complex ecosystem, which must be preserved.
Michèle Noiret
Trained at Maurice Béjart’s Mudra school, she founded her company in Brussels in 1986. As the author of nearly 40 choreographies, she has introduced the interactive technologies of sound and image to her creations since the 90s and questions the chaos of the world through these multiple languages, as well as our perceptions of space and time. Her dance reveals an inventive writing supported by rigorous research, carried out by performers considered true “choreographic characters”.

COMPAGNIE PHILIPPE SAIRE
Salle des fêtes
Creation 2021
Performance for 2 dancers
Concept and choreography: Philippe Saire
Dancers: Neal Maxwell, David Zagari
Lighting design: Philippe Saire, Vincent Scalbert
Sound: Philippe de Rham
Costumes: Isa Boucharlat
Technical manager: Louis Riondel
As symbols of power and fragility – seductive and sometimes disturbing – balloons are at the heart of this unusual spectacle, as subtle and delicate as air.
At the beginning, there is a desire to renew the scenic space with a strong scenographic proposal. Since 2011, this approach has given birth to four pieces in the original format: Black Out, Néons, Vacuum and Ether. Salle des Fêtes, structured in three acts, is the fifth part of these “Devices”. Seated in a circle on the set, the audience is invited to get as close as possible to the action. In the centre, a disc-shaped cover releases multicoloured balloons, inflated with helium, with which two white, masked clowns dance. Their strange appearance contrasts with a universe that irresistibly evokes the joy of childhood, popular entertainment and the fictional enchanted realms of Walt Disney. While the balloons, connected to their circular structure, pass successively from the ground to the rafters, before coming to land on the ground once more, one wonders: are these clones trying to distract us? Or is their role to embody, through catharsis, our inevitable human weight combined with our innate need for lightness and elevation … Leaving it up to the audience, Philippe Saire allows everyone to taste the consoling magic of a choreography tinged with nostalgia and tender humour. In memory of the delighted child, clutching the string of a balloon, that sleeps in each of us.
Philippe Saire
With a great passion for visual arts, theatre and cinema, choreographer Philippe Saire is one of the leading figures in the contemporary Swiss scene. With his company founded in 1986, he has created around thirty pieces with perfectly chiselled direction, including Vie et Moeurs du Chameleon Nocturne and Hocus Pocus. Based in Lausanne, he was awarded the 2004 “Swiss Dance and Choreography Award” by ProTanz, in Zurich, as well as the 2013 Special Dance Prize of the Federal Office of Culture for his place of work and creation, the Théâtre Sévelin 36.

Graffiti artist: François Raveau
With young dancers influenced by global aesthetics, DUB summons up the musical and choreographic vitality of Generation Z in a joyful, free and contemporary utopia.
They call themselves whacking, dancehall, hell, jookin and pantsula. Streamed via social media, these urban dances 2.0 come from specific communities located in Korea, Europe, the United States or South and West Africa. Their performers, as connected as they are virtuosic, draw their rhythmic energy from DJ beats remixing traditional or popular music. While borrowing from the choreographic references of their elders of the hip-hop generation, they invent a free and hybrid movement which inspires Amala Dianor. The choreographer therefore chose to meet them physically in their various places of life, accompanied by photographer Grégoire Korganow. Following the process of appropriation of Dub music, which distorts acoustic reggae by mixing it with electronic sounds, he then invited them to move and extend their respective dance techniques around a common field of experimentation, an “ephemeral territory conceived as a space of encounter”. In the same spirit, the visual device of the room is inspired by the spaces seen on site, from the collective ballroom to the private apartment, while Awir Léon’s musical composition is nourished by influences specific to each practice. From reference to (re)creation, a living, creative, enjoyable picture of today’s dances.
AMALA DIANOR COMPANY
After a brilliant career as a performer, Amala Dianor created his Kaplan company in 2012. From his solo Man Rec in 2014, where he explored his African origins, to The Falling Stardust (2019) for nine contemporary and classic dancers or Emaphakathini (2022) for the Via Katlehong, he happily blends forms and styles between hip-hop, his artistic homeland, and the contemporary – he was trained at the Angers CNDC. In 2021, he also directed the CinéDance short films with Grégoire Korganow.

Creation 2023
Performance for 5 dancers
Choreography: Thomas Lebrun
Dancers: Antoine Arbeit, Raphaël Cottin, Arthur Gautier, Sébastien Ly, Nicolas Martel
Music : Trio Monte Alban, Maxime Fabre, Susana Harp, La Bruja de Texcoco (arrangement Seb Martel), Banda Regional Princesa Donashii, Rocio Durcal, Hector Berlioz, Eddy de Pretto, et la voix de Felina Santiago Valdivieso

Technical manager: Xavier Carré

Assistant: Anne-Emmanuelle Deroo
Anthropologist researcher: Raymundo Ruiz González
A woman’s dance or a man’s dance? Between two continents, Thomas Lebrun’s creation goes beyond appearances to question the feminine faces of masculinity.
In southern Mexico, in the Oaxaca region, they are known as Muxes. Born male and yet female, neither transgender nor transvestite, they are raised as girls and can dress as such. At local festivals, they wear the traditional Zapotec outfit, a long shimmering skirt woven with floral patterns and flowers poked through their hair. The choreographer Thomas Lebrun set off last year to meet this third gender, recognised but for which sexuality is strictly governed, and marriage unthinkable. In his exploration of masculine femininity, a notion so difficult to grasp that there is no precise term for it, he compares their society with those of most countries of the world. There is violence and discrimination against “feminine men”, even when they have won the right to marry each other. His choreographic documentary oscillates from realism to dreamlike, questioning the identity and representations of the body “under the flowers”. With the help of a Mexican anthropologist, five performers, including a singing actor, all aware of their inner femininity, embark on a quest of perpetual transformation. Meanwhile, the soundtrack combines local music with a delightfully non-gendered score: Berlioz’s Le Spectre de la rose.
Thomas Lebrun
After founding his company Illico in 2000, he first served as an artist associated with Vivat d’Armentières (2002-2004) and then with Danse à Lille/CDC (2005-2011), where he created Itinéraire d’un danseur grassouillet in 2009. Since his appointment in 2012 to the direction of the Tours National Choreographic Centre, he has choreographed around fifteen creations, with precise dance and unapologetic theatricality. In 2021, he celebrated his company’s 20th birthday with an anniversary piece, Mille et une danse (for 2021).

CLOUD GATE DANCE THEATRE OF TAIWAN
13 Tongues
Creation 2016
Performance for 13 dancers
Choreography: Cheng Tsung-lung
Set design: Ho Chia-hsing
Music: Lim Giong
Lighting design: Shen Po-hung
Video: Ethan Wang
Costumes: Lin Bing-hao
Coach voice: Tsai Pao-chang
Dancers : CHAN Pui-pui, CHEN Tsung-chiao, CHOU Chen-yeh, FAN Chia-hsuan, HSU Chih-hen, HUANG Lu-kai, HUANG Mei-ya, HUANG Po-kai, LEE Tzu-chun, SHAO Hsing-wen, WANG Chun-hung, WU Jui-ying, YEN Hsueh-hsin.
Immersed in the heart of Taiwanese imagination with the oldest Asian contemporary dance company, set in a vertiginous kaleidoscope of images and emotions.
Close your eyes … and reopen them in one of the bustling thoroughfares of Bangka/Wanhua, Taipei’s oldest district. Where the young Cheng Tsung-lung grew up, gently rocked to sleep by his mother’s tales of a local popular figure, the artist Thirteen Tongues. In the sixties, this legendary storyteller took to the streets, with his noble or trivial human activities, his sacred rites and his secular festivals, transforming the district’s inhabitants into the characters of his inventive narratives. Thirty years later, the choreographer draws from his memories to recreate the thrilling clamour and haunting legends that marked his childhood. From folk songs to Taoist singing, electronics and the immemorial sound of a one-handed ritual bell, the music immerses the viewer in a fusional space-time. The religious heritage of the ancient Bangka/Wanhua – that of the spirit realm – blends with the contemporary face of human passions. Experienced in all styles, the thirteen – of course! – dancers of the troupe evolve in an immersive setting, recomposed through dazzling projections of lights and images. In spiritual connection with the deities, a fantastic world arises, carrying the memory of an entire people.
Cheng Tsung-lung, Cloud Gate Dance Theater of Taiwan
Founded in 1973 by Lin Hwai-min, Cloud Gate has been recognised as “one of the best international companies”. Its creations, nourished by traditional techniques as well as classical and contemporary dance, have been represented all over the world. Since 2020, it has been directed by dancer and choreographer Cheng Tsung-lung, who first joined the troupe in 2002 as a dancer before heading up Cloud Gate 2 in 2014. His latest piece, Send In A Cloud (2022), presents the dancers’ life journeys in changing colours.

Smell of Cement (extract) Creation 2023
Choreography, dance: Eman Hussein
A solo in which the dance reflects the link between the movement impacted by the daily gestures of the workers, their environment and their working conditions. The aim is to reveal the memory of repeated movement, pain and its emotional impact. The project, which is currently being created, was produced during Eman’s residency at the Cité Internationale in Paris between January and March 2023.
Eman Hussein is an independent dancer, choreographer and dance film-maker based in Cairo. She studied dance (Cairo Contemporary Dance Centre MAAT), street art (Nahda Arts School NAS), theatre (Helwan University) and martial arts (MESHKAH – Cairo).

A project combining contemporary dance, physical theatre and set design in which the mechanics of the set generate interdependent relationships between the movement of the performers and the instability of the floor, reflecting a world on the brink of the abyss.
Marie Gourdain is a choreographer, set designer and visual artist based between Lyon and Prague. Her work combines her training in the visual arts (ENSAD) with contemporary dance, employing the tools of graphic and sculptural composition as well as a detailed analysis of movement. For Seismic she has teamed up with director and performer Felix Baumann, who is based between Berlin and Prague. He has been working as an independent artist on the international scene since 2016.

ROF (excerpt) – Creation 2021
Choreography: Sveinbjörg Thorahallsdóttir – Performer: Diljá Sveinsdóttir
What movement does she perceive? What narrative is the dancer embodying? What is her real movement? How can the movement of the mind reach its climax in relation to the notion or idea of time? The solo focuses on the dancer’s level of perception and awareness in relation to space and time.
Sveinbjörg Thorahallsdóttir holds a master’s degree in choreography from Fontys University in Holland. She has worked as a professional choreographer in Reykjavik theatres. After a period teaching at Iceland University of the Arts, she returned to the independent scene. Her solo ROF is the result of her IUA research and was premiered at the Reykjavik Dance Festival in 2021.

Between Heaven and Earth (extract) – Creation 2019
Choreography and performance: Kossivi Sénagbé Afiadegnigban
How do you put down roots while being uprooted? Kossivi Sénagbé Afiadegnigban’s choreography gives us the impression of moving forward without any real reference points, of being at a crossroads between the realities of today’s world and the roots drawn from his mother’s history and those of his ancestors.
Born into an animist family, Kossivi Sénagbé Afiadegnigban made his first contact with dance during vodou ceremonies and rituals. A 2016 graduate of Germaine Acogny’s École des Sables, he danced with choreographer Bintou Dembele in Ancestralité & afrofuturisme. Since 2019, Kossivi has been a companion of the CCN de Roubaix Haut de France, where he carries out creative residencies and works with students at the École Supérieure de Musique et de danse de Roubaix. At the same time, he is artistic director of the SOL’ŒIL d’AFRIK association.

Crossroads to synchronicity
Creation 2017
French Riviera Première
Performance for 6 dancers
Choreography : Carolyn Carlson
A piece of astonishing beauty that speaks of love, encounters, intense emotions and singular circumstances, in a powerful and luminous way. As a prologue, Carolyn Carlson deploys her 'visual poetry' in an improvisation carried by the simultaneously synthetic and organic music of Guillaume Perret.
Star choreographer Carolyn Carlson, who revolutionised contemporary dance at the Opéra de Paris in the 1970s, revisits her creation Synchronicity, inspired by Carl Jung in 2012. Based on filmed sequences, the six performers dive into short stories describing unpredictable and decisive moments in life. As dance explores the magic of coincidences, wonder ensues!

French Riviera Première
Performance for 7 dancers
Conception : Mié Coquempot
Choreography : Mié Coquempot, Béatrice Massin et Bruno Bouché
Music : Offrande Musicale
OFFRANDE is the testament work of Mié Coquempot, who chose to share it with two other choreographers, reconciling several styles of dance under the aegis of the music of Bach.
L’Offrande musicale, composed by Johann Sebastian Bach in 1747 is considered the masterpiece of an era. This musical work serves as the common thread of this piece, in which Béatrice Massin and her baroque dance meet the ‘more classical’ universe of Bruno Bouché, under the chiseled gaze of Mié Coquempot, who launched this unifying project just before his death.

With fascinating pieces that will remain in our memory for a long time, Damien Jalet is one of the most unique choreographers of the present day.
Continuing on from Vessel , which created another world from the anatomy of the dancers, Planet [wanderer], like the second part of a diptych resulting from the collaboration of Damien Jalet and Kohei Nawa, engages itself in an intermediate territory, between science and mythology. Through the physical confrontation of the human body and various experimental materials, elements and gravity, the piece activates a visceral and tragic tale of love between humans and the planet to which they are linked.

Desperate rush towards self-realization by trying to avoid total confrontation, All I Need is also and above all the affirmation of a fundamental need of humanity, that of a collective and reasoned listening.
In a world premiere at the Festival de Danse Cannes – Côte d'Azur France, Edouard Hue, rising star of Franco-Swiss choreography, asserts his unique signature with All I Need
In a hostile and tactical environment, how do we bring the world together and avoid all-out war? The choreographer Edouard Hue, through a choreographic structure inspired by the game of Go, lets himself be carried away and inspired by the following urgent requirement: to propose a new fundamental need, that of listening between individuals.
In the first part, the duo Shiver – carried by Edouard Hue (Swiss Dance Prize 2019 Exceptional Dancer) and Yurié Tsugawa (performer of major roles in Angelin Preljocaj’s repertoire) – diffuses a thrill of excitement, cold and fear, rendering the spectacle truly thrilling.
