The KESAKO LABO?
LE LABO is part of our approach to share what we called “the interpreter tools”.
We want to share and to allow amateurs and semi-professionals to take part in a creation of a piece and to discover the ways of working, exploring and creating within a professional team.
Who says Laboratory, says research!
It is therefore in a choreographic exploration that this artistic initiative unfolds.
This year, the work will be based firstly on a common learning of rhythms and movements specific to percussive disciplines and then deploy in a work of listening, improvisation and creation where each performer will have their own place.
During our rehearsals we will delve into the world of polyrhythms and percussive dances to create a piece where movement, dance and rhythm intertwine.
The body will be our instrument and the rhythm will be visual!
LES BALLETS NOMADES
The Ballets Nomades company was born in the USA in 2016. It is a 1901 french law association whose work is centered on body know-how.
Dances, tales, body percussions, voices are the central tools of the company.
What is the dance act? Where does the movement come from? What are the bridges between dance and music? How can we make our bodies a space where musicality, listening, sensation are born?
These questions are part of the company’s research and explorations.
This year, body, movement and rhytm will be the heart of our work.
The objective is to support them, to give them what is necessary so that they can deploy.
The company is based on the meeting and exchange between different forms of traditional and percussive dances.
She is active in the transmission and creation of shows.
