Bal

A child of globalization, but also of the desire to meet the other by exchanging one's knowledge in a confrontation of body techniques and cultural origins, linguistic cross-fertilization marks many works related to contemporary dance.

Bal draws on the traditional dance evenings called in the West Indies Zouk, convivial events with dance, live music and song in which the audience will be warmly invited to participate: a fresh way to experience the call to the ancient tradition of the West Indies among mazurkas and quadrilles, with forays into African and Brazilian dances. Further invitation to the affair.
