GUEST – Noémie Cordier
First choreographic creation
Act 1: Solo “Rest(e)”
Noémie Cordier unfolds her danced story on stage, shaped by the cultures that form her identity. On a floor dusted with talc, her steps draw a sensitive cartography where street culture, house dance, capoeira, and contemporary dance intertwine. Each movement becomes a landmark, between intimate memory and collective heritage. The body in motion reveals a landscape in transformation, nourished by freestyle, transmissions, and the influences that shape her artistic journey.
Act 2: Trio “Club’in”
The stage becomes a collective space driven by the energy of club culture: alongside a drummer-dancer and a beatmaker-dancer, music and movement engage in live dialogue. Acoustic and electronic textures respond to one another, weaving an organic relationship where each gesture influences sound. Together, they invite the audience into a sensitive immersion, transforming the stage into a living club—a place of sharing, exchange, and freedom.
Act 3: “Play & Dance”
After the performance, the dance continues! For Act 3, each audience member leaves with an illustrated booklet in which a QR code leads to an exclusive playlist. A selection of clubbing classics, echoing Noémie’s story, extends the experience and the connection created on stage.
