Between intimate exchanges, trials, adjustments and sharing, witnessing the first unveilings of a work in progress is a precious moment, and this is the gift that Silvia Gribaudi offers us. Working in the studio with five dancers, the Italian choreographer draws inspiration from the myth of the Amazons to invent a shamanic ritual that celebrates the power of sisterhood. Amazzoni laughs at stereotypes. Femininity is affirmed as free and plural.


After the presentation, join us for a drink to celebrate the launch of the Le Grand Bain festival.

Saturday 14 March: take part in a Samedi Dansé with Silvia Gribaudi
