[ Cancelled ] AVANT-PREMIÈRES

The “preview” residences are designed to offer artists the optimum conditions to put the finishing touches to their new creations. This support comes in the form of a technical residence that enables a show to be finalised as well as assistance with the dissemination of their work. The residence ends with an invitation to professionals to encourage exchanges and raise the profile of the creators’ work.This year, we are using this display window to invite artists whose premieres were scheduled for the LEGS festival in 2020 but have now been postponed until March-April 2021.

Soirée d’études / Cassiel Gaube (BE)

After studying at P.A.R.T.S., Cassiel Gaube devoted himself to the practice and analysis of house dance, a style born in the clubs of Chicago and New York in the 1980s. For his second creation, he is developing a trio with 2 performers on the urban dance scene, continuing his research into the huge wealth of steps, rhythms and combinations this discipline offers.

Salutations Mistinguettes / Stéphanie Auberville (FR/BE)

The artistic approach of dancer, choreographer and improviser Stéphanie Auberville is similar to documentary work, delving into archives and our collective imaginations. In something between a solo and danced lecture about her research on Bolero, Salutations Mistinguettes questions representations of genres of the past and present.
