Denis Plassard

After training in classical and contemporary dance at the CNSMD in Lyon and a brief career as a performer (Josette Baïz), Denis Plassard created his first solo Propos in 1990, which gave its name to the company he founded the following year. He was awarded the D.E. as a teacher of contemporary dance in 1991. He has been choreographer and dancer with Cie Propos for over 30 years.

Over the years with the company, he has built up a vast repertoire of non-mainstream shows that combine acting, text and humour. Alongside these stage adventures, Denis Plassard has developed original artistic projects involving photography (Hors Sol, photo novels), sound design (audioguides, audio-guided warm-ups, indoor radio guidance, etc.) and acting (La clinique du docteur D).

Since the beginning of the Cie Propos adventure, he has nurtured a passion for transmission and the invention of processes for working with audiences, with the idea of sharing a dance that is accessible to all.

He is regularly invited by other theatres (CDN de Valence, Théâtre Craie, Turak, Raskine & Cie), circus companies (Virevolt, CNAC, Rasposo), music companies (Ensemble Boréades) and dance companies (Käfig, Panthera Ballet Kazan Russia).
