Catherine Gaudet
Catherine Gaudet, a graduate of UQAM, presented her first choreography in 2004, making her mark over the next two years with « Grosse fatigue »– acclaimed in Denmark – and « L’arnaque », where she was already probing the difficulties of human relations. In 2009 she delved into the effects of loss in her first long piece, « L’invasion du vide », named by the weekly « Voir » as one of its Top 5, a listing she received again in 2012 for « Je suis un autre ». That piece scratched beneath the surface of social façade to reveal the ambiguity of beings grappling with their contradictions. In 2014, in addition to « Au sein des plus raides vertus », she created « Roméo et Juliette » with Jérémie Niel, one of the pieces featured in 2050 « Mansfield – Rendez-vous à l’hôtel », an event orchestrated by La 2e Porte à Gauche, of which she is a member. From this short piece, she created, in 2016, a long version, « The most excellent and lamentable tragedy of Romeo and Juliet », presented at Usine C (Montreal) and Théâtre de Chaillot (Paris).
