Domino + Compact au Festival OFF d'Avignon 2016

<p>  </p> <p> Hello everyone ! </p> <p>  </p> <p> As you can see on this video, but might not understand, Rafael Smadja and myself are both choreographers and we have decided to team up to make this ambitious project of going to Avignon OFF festival this summer possible. We will present our own creations in one of the most important festival in the world ! This project is a real opportunity to develop touring for our works.</p> <p>  </p> <p> As we are young, healthy and a little naive, we thought it should be now and not another time as it is a project which requires so much time and energy!</p> <p>  </p> <p> The Théâtre Golovine, has let us rent its space between July 7-30, however without financial means and support, we can put all our good will and strength... without your help, it could not be possible.</p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Affiche_avignon_domino_compact-1463046191" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/315353/Affiche_Avignon_Domino_Compact-1463046191.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>CREATIONS</strong></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong><em>DOMINO</em></strong> • duet 30 minutes</p> <p> Choreography &amp; staging Rafael Smadja</p> <p> Assisted by Cédric Gagneur</p> <p> With Rafael Smadja et Cédric Gagneur</p> <p> Scenography Imad Nefti</p> <p> External help Tali Serruya</p> <p> Musical creation Julia Kent, Alexandre Dai Castaing</p> <p> Lighting creation Loic Brisset</p> <p> Costumes Rafael Smadja</p> <p>  </p> <p> In a framework flirting between absurd and surrealism, two dancers come across an hypnotic and binding scenography. A labyrinth where dance comes out of the emotional state. Two humans, two dances, different and complementary. Contagious, it circulates as a wave crossing two bodies, leaving a visible trace and marking these two men with a contagious empathy. <em>DOMINO</em> deals with influence.</p> <p>  </p> <p> Excerpt : <a href="http://bit.ly/RSmadja_Domino_teaser" target="_blank">https://vimeo.com/162852767</a></p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>Production : </strong>Cie Tensei</p> <p> <strong>With the help, coproduction and residency : </strong>Centre Chorégraphique National de Créteil et du Val-de-Marne Compagnie Käfig direction Mourad Merzouki • Esplanade du Lac • Divonne-les-Bains • Espace Grangette, Thonon les Bains • Croiseur / Lyon • Pôle Pik / Bron</p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong><em>COMPACT •</em></strong> duet 25 minutes</p> <p> Choreography &amp; staging Jann Gallois</p> <p> With Jann Gallois et Rafael Smadja</p> <p> Lighting creation by Cyril Mulon</p> <p> Music Alexandre Dai Castaing, Nils Frahm</p> <p> Costumes Marie Cécile Viault</p> <p>  </p> <p> With <em>Compact</em>, Jann Gallois, imbricates two bodies one into the other in order to question the notions of duality and fusion while offering a mirror to the obsession of contact, real or virtual, which haunts the society.</p> <p> True performance, during this dance,  two artists become only one. The duet becomes solo. Duality, fusion, coexistence remain the master words of this work, both soft and powerful. At times violent, delicate, severe and then burlesque the dancers take us in a whirl of emotions up to the expected harmony .</p> <p>  </p> <p> Excerpts : <a href="http://bit.ly/JGallois_Compact_DCH" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/kgqbgmYQw3Q</a> // <a href="http://bit.ly/Compact_Teaser_JGallois" target="_blank">https://vimeo.com/148736285</a></p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>Production : </strong>Cie BurnOut</p> <p> <strong>Coproduction : </strong>Théâtre de Suresnes Jean Vilar / Cités danse connexions</p> <p> <strong>With the help and residency : </strong>Centre Chorégraphique National de Créteil et du Val-de-Marne / Compagnie Käfig direction Mourad Merzouki • CDC Le Pacifique / Grenoble • CCG La Gomera / Espagne • Dantzagunea Gipuzkoako / Espagne </p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>CHOREOGRAPHERS</strong></p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>Rafael Smadja</strong></p> <p>                                                             <img alt="Rafael_smadja_2-1463135351" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/315976/Rafael_Smadja_2-1463135351.jpg"></p> <p> Self-taught by nature, Rafael Smadja meets hip-hop culture in 1998 and in 2003 he left the world of martial arts for dance art. In order to learn the basics and foundations, he went in search of the roots of hip hop dance and met pioneers such as Mr Wiggles, Ken Swift, Future, Brian Green, PopinPete or Mamson. A few years later, learns to go beyond the "code" and "deform" it. His dance will follow a path focused on the research and development of a vocabulary of its own. Imad Nefti and Olivier Lefrançois, both teachers and choreographers will be his «deformers» and guides during this period.</p> <p>  </p> <p> Between 2012-2015, he worked with the danish company Next Zone directed by Lene Boel for the piece <em>Human Planet Shaman</em>, Yann Marussich, stage director Tali Serruya, choreographers Olé Khamchanla and Bouziane Bouteldja as well as Stéphane Fortin from Cie Thêatre Bascule. With Tensei, his own company created in</p> <p>  </p> <p> 2012, Rafael Smadja created as a choreographer <em>Fleuve </em>(2012), <em>Presk </em>(2013), <em>Cactus </em>(2014), a commission from Antigel Festival/ADC Geneva and <em>Domino </em>(2015), work for which he is nominated at the Beaumarchais-SACD Prize. He is creating a new work, <em>Identité en Crescendo</em>, which will have its premiere at Festival TRAX in Saint-Etienne in June 2016.</p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>Jann Gallois</strong></p> <p>                                             <img alt="Jann_gallois_2-1463135362" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/315977/Jann_Gallois_2-1463135362.jpg"></p> <p> After many years studying music at the conservatoire, Jann Gallois started dancing in 2004. It was Thony Maskot, a mainstay of the French hip-hop scene, who introduced her to what was to become her passion. At the same time, to widen her skills, Jann trained as a contemporary dancer at the Peter Goss School. She also trained as an actress at the Ecole de Théâtre de Paris, under Colette Louvois, whilst following her self-taught path.</p> <p>  </p> <p> Since 2008, Jann Gallois has worked for various companies and choreographers, starting with Sébastien Lefrançois, followed by François Berdeaux, Sylvain Groud, Bouziane Bouteldja, Coraline Lamaison, Angelin Preljocaj, Sebastien Ramirez and Kaori Ito. In 2012, Jann Gallois embarked upon choreographing and, together with Damien Guillemin, she created <em>Nager dans ses rêves </em>a duet supported by Luc Petton and the « Laboratoire Choréographique de Reims ».</p> <p>  </p> <p> The success of that piece encouraged her to set up her own company,<strong> BurnOut</strong>, and to write her first own solo piece, <em>P=mg </em>for which she was 9 times awarded by national and international prizes, such as Paris Young Talent Prize and Beaumarchais-SACD Prize in Paris, Solo-Tanz Theater Prize in Stuttgart, Masdanza Prize in Canary Islands, Machol Shalem Prize in Jerusalem, and Gdansk solo dance contest Prize in Poland.</p> <p>  </p> <p> In 2015, Jann Gallois received the support of of the French Ministry of Culture with a subsidy and confirmed her artistic signature, combining choreographic and theatrical work, by creating once again a solo-piece called <em>Diagnostic F20.</em>9. In August, she was named “Best choreographic hope” by the german magazine Tanz of the year 2015. She creates <em>Compact </em>in 2016, a duet piece with her main partner Rafal Smadja who became her choreographic assistant.</p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> Between 18-22 July 2016, she will present a new work at Théâtre de la Parenthèse in Avignon : <em>Carte Blanche, </em>a feminine trio as part of the platform "La Belle Scène-Saint-Denis", organized between Théâtre Louis Aragon in Tremblay-en-France and Théâtre Gérard Philippe in Saint-Denis, both near Paris.</p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>ON STAGE TOO</strong></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>Cédric Gagneur (dancer <em>Domino</em>)</strong></p> <p>                                             <img alt="Ce_dric_gagneur_2-1463135558" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/315981/Ce_dric_Gagneur_2-1463135558.jpg"></p> <p> Cédric started dancing in 2008 with bboying.
