Wave
The voice, spoken, sung, shouted, whispered, is a vector. It transmits, expresses, an emotional state – moreover, it is the personal stamp of a consciousness. The voice is also the first musical instrument. Little by little catalogued by stylistic registers, from the creation of the tonality, it was put in boxes, in genres, was subjected…
Electric Screwdriver In Promotion
A « little people » moved by rules, sneaks in, clashes in the heart of an orchestra of loudspeakers. In an effusion of sounds, the paths of the bodies are as precise as they are constrained. Interlacing and vanishing lines, dancers and music exhaust the form and it is perhaps at the moment when it dies that…
Between the two shoulders
With Between the two shoulders, Caroline de Cornière gathers impressions experienced in front of the text of the diary Traces de vie by Alice Rivaz to cross with tenderness and delicacy the traces of life that the body carries and that impregnate the gestures.

Concours de larmes
Concours de larmes takes us into a poetic, entertaining and cathartic arena where we confront our experiences of crying. The sad clown, the drama queen, the weeper or the crocodile tears, it is through these archetypal figures that they question this old patriarchal idea that it is necessary to be a woman. The Contest of tears…

17 February 2022 Part 1 of the “Faking It” Trilogy “How to Do Things with Words” is a pas de deux between bodies and graphic text, between language and movement. How does one dance with text?
