Et de se tenir la main

Seizing, pulling, holding, caressing, caring... Our hands alone tell us about our capacity to act and to connect, about the tolerance between  two people and also about what escapes us. The two dancers, accompanied by live drums, take us on a sensitive, luminous, musical and committed experience, preceded by a tactile prologue to be performed indoors!

Perrier, Mélanie

With her company 2minimum, Mélanie Perrier develops a work around « a  virtuosity of relationship », a research around the duo in particular. She makes choreography writing a geography of bodies, giving rise to sensitive experiences. Considering dance relays on relationships, her company strives to invent new places for dance in society. As such, she is very attached to contemporary issues of artistic education.
