Compagnie l'Octogonale

For alchemists, the octagon represents the perfect blend between the square (human) and the circle (divine). This concept of combining two opposing elements is something that Jérôme Brabant, the choreographer of the company, enjoys exploring in his dance and creations.

In Réunion, our culture of the supernatural is inseparable from who we are. The octagon is a geometric figure with 8 sides, 8 faces, offering as many possibilities as the facets of a gemstone, reflecting a multitude of colors.

In the dance of the company L’Octogonale, Jérôme Brabant often starts with a single movement, which he then develops into a constantly changing landscape.
