Due to circumstances beyond our control, the May and June public openings will not take place.
Dancer and choreographer Dominique Dupuy expressed his desire to dance and sing in the dark. Régine Chopinot accepted the challenge. She invited friends and family to take the plunge, just as one would throw oneself into fire or wind. To swim. Get burned. Fly.
Régine Chopinot last worked with Françoise and Dominique Dupuy at the creation of la Danse du Temps in 1999 in La Rochelle, where they were associate artists for 3 years.
Régine Chopinot has no idea what's going to happen, and yet something is going to happen. Nor does she know what to call it. Dominique Dupuy first thought of calling it "Le silence est d'or" (Silence is golden), but recently " Transports" came along. And for the time being, it's still called that.
On behalf of Cornucopiae, Régine Chopinot thanks Rachid Ouramdane and Hortense Archambault for hosting this improbable suspended moment at the Théâtre National de la danse - Chaillot and the Maison de la Culture MC93.
