Espace Perreault get-together: Recreating solos

Date
December 1, 2022

Espace Perreault Get-Togethers are 5 à 7 events that offer a warm, relaxed atmosphere to meet dance artists, ask them questions, and find out what drives them. Every 5 à 7 event is dedicated to a specific, shared challenge that is central to the creative process.

Recreating solos

In 2020 and 2021, Louise Bédard tackled the one-on-one transmission of a solo to Marilyn Daoust, Marie Claire Forté, Louis-Élyan Martin and Sarah Williams. As Zoé Meyer writes in an essay we will post on the site, “After long months of lockdown and health restrictions, going back to the studio is a moment of joy (…) there was a desire to keep a record of the passing of the baton: each of the pieces was filmed by Mario Côté.” We mark the launch of the videos on our website during an event at the MAI, raising the challenges of transmitting choreographic works, for the choreographer, dancers, and the producer.
