I Repertory

Create short plays with multiple aesthetics, from hip-hop to smooth classical Plays, each lasting between 15 and 20 minutes, may be staged separately or combined to form a full evening's performance Plays may be performed outdoors, in a park bandstand, in the shadow of the wash house, in a school playground.. but they dress up in their all their well-lit finery when they head inside the theatre To add to the fun, organisers can plan their programmes à la carte

II Beautiful Foreigners

For our third season: three new works, three new dances commissioned from foreign choreographers. Same rules of the game: to share the stage with other short works, keeping a family audience in mind, and be based on free inspirations of our beloved fables by Jean de La Fontaine. The African continent will be represented by the South African choreographer Boyzie Cekwana. From Brazil we will have a version by Lia Rodrigues. The third fable will come from Québec: Danièle Desnoyers answered our offer… we will see. Rest assured that the animals invented by these creators’ imaginations will surprise us with their exotic and picturesque colors. These artists are distinguished by their beautiful energy, their way of situating themselves with sincerity and commitment in their respective countries, places of considerable charm though at times full of pain.
