20 Dancers for the XX Century and More

Positioned throughout the Theatre, twenty dancers reinterpret iconic choreographies, offering audiences an anthology of dance spanning the XX^th century and more.

Boris Charmatz has selected solos by emblematic choreographers which he has combined with demonstrations of popular dances to create a repertoire of stylistic markers from our modern times.

The short performances will take place in the foyers, galleries, main hall, stairs as well as onstage and backstage. Each excerpt is preceded by a short oral presentation.
