Élixir de Mer

MOVEMENT WORKSHOP

Join us for a workshop delving into the movement themes of Élixir de Mer, guided by international dance artists Andrea Martín and Clémentine Herveux. Throughout the day, we will explore the world of embodied imagination through movement material from the piece and physical practices used in its creative process.

You will gain insight into the dancers’ individual approaches to movement, hear about the creation process and the development of the choreography, and have the opportunity to meet the performers and learn about their artistic backgrounds. What is it like for Herveux to return to a familiar work? And how has Martín entered the world of the piece for the very first time?

The workshop is open to performing arts professionals and students, as well as anyone interested in the mechanics of movement.

For workshop participants: Élixir de Mer -tickets at a special price of 15€!

You will receive a discount code by email in August.
