Nous (ne) sommes (pas) tous des danseurs.
After two years in residency at Agora de la danse, and over thirty years in dance, Sophie Corriveau is once again undertaking the Traces Interprètes project, a unique and unprecedented creative platform offered by Danse-Cité. Through an original artistic proposition focusing on the profession of the dancer, Sophie Corriveau lends voice and body to different dancers, sharing a series of singular accounts of real-life experiences.
Addressing a multi-generational community of dancers, Sophie Corriveau and Katya Montaignac open the discussion, outlining the foundations and inner workings of the dancer’s profession, along with the accompanying myths. A field for new experiences, this atypical project proposes a way of being together in a performance space in which everyone participates. An adventure featuring meetings and discoveries shared with the public.
