L'impassé-e
avec 18 danseu.r.euse.s en 3 pays d’Amérique du Sud.
All terrain performance
L’IMPASSÉ-E is a choreographic device imagined by Julie Nioche during the April 2020 confinement to continue to act and meet through dance.
The idea was to meet the neighbors of the dead end where she lives. In this private way, times of sharing were organized in which this offered and addressed dance took place. To the person who offered a word expressing how he or she would like to feel, Julie Nioche offered a dance to music proposed in echo.
This simple and very direct device of meeting between spectators and dancers has since been transmitted and deployed. It has since been shared from one dead end to another, from one neighbor to another, from Julie Nioche to other dancers in Toulouse, Paris and even Quito, Lima, Buenos Aires.
Around Nantes, a team of artists now carries it where they think it is important to open the meeting through danced gestures.
L’IMPASSÉ-E can be offered to all the neighborhoods, those of theaters, in the courtyards of EHPADs, shared buildings, in gardens, in museums…
Between January and February 2021, Julie Nioche & Milena Gilabert shared the choreographic device of L’IMPASSÉ-E with 18 dancers in these 3 South American countries.
