William Petit

William Petit created his company in 1991. Its name – Fabrik nomade – highlights the love of travel and meetings that drives the seething works of this choreographer. He is convinced that borders, those situations of rubbing against otherness, are the imaginary production point of greatly significant movements. East Land – Cabaret nomade is emblematic of this. Created in 2000, this piece does not merely recreate a night-time, musical and feverish memory, drawn from the frequent visits to a Serbian bar. In its original form, it draws into the dance the actual spectators, arranged around the artists. William Petit has great experience in the transmission of this piece, in a variety of contexts and countries.
