LES IMPROMPTUES

UNEXPECTED DANCE

Dance anywhere improvising and introducing an esthetic Modern Dance into everyday life.
Offering a taste of unexpected pure Art in everyday life.
Establishing a lively and sensitive connection, a bridge between Art and normal life, between places, situations, works of art and people.
Proposing a poetic vision of everyday life.
To open dance up as an accessible art form.
To offer Dance as a breath.
Create an innovative and collaborative community of dancers engaged in open artistic exchanges.

On their way, the passersby stop or turn around, surprised, amused, touched,

suddenly happier, suddenly a little freer, a little prouder to be human.

They return to their everyday life with more than a feeling of joy

like a smile in their hearts. (Alain - French Philosopher)

THE CHARACTERS

THE BATHERS

THE FISHERWOMEN

surprise the public of an event

The bathers come straight from the beginning of the 20th century, Les Impromptues are bathers from the 1920s, dressed in bathing suits from the epoc. In 100 years the world has changed completely. Les Impromptues therefore pass from bewilderment to jubiliation; from fear to tenderness; from seriousness to fantasy. Are they taken aback, terrified, amused by everything they discover? A smile, a shrug, a few small steps outlined, and it is the optimism of dance prevails. It is a pleasure to meet them on each occasion.

IMPROMPTU MOVEMENT
