DANSE DE NUIT was created in the period between the attacks at Charlie Hebdo, the Bataclan and in Brussels. Boris Charmatz, who is considered one of the most important contemporary dance reformers, will present a work that lies somewhere between a protest and funeral march, wild remix and ephemeral dance – a choreographic equivalent to incomplete graffiti that comments on real events in a poetic and highly subjective way.
