Studio 8

THE COMPANY IS MOVING 

Studio 8 is closing its doors ...

For more than five years the space has welcomed many artists, children, teenagers, amateurs and professionals, offering residencies and a diverse range of projects and training programs contributing to its relevance.

We were proud to have them with us! 

The Company created three pieces here: Penthésilées, Dentro and Blow The Bloody Doors Off! and revived two repertory works, Solides and Stances II. Jour et Nuit also was begun here. 

A Studio, an essential resource for dance – disappears: this represents the failure of certain thinking, a vision for cultural policy; what is left for art and culture in the city, the urban environment? Cities, metropolitan areas and the départements are deciding this.

Access to art happens in these spaces, uniquely qualified in humanistic terms, creating balance and a link to the theatres, which still intimidate certain audiences and sectors of the community.

Let us work together toward political cohesion in the regions.
We are looking to enhance
the strength of creation in general,
all forms of dance, for everyone,
access to practice and to encountering the artists.

We thank the city of Vannes, the Théâtre Anne de Bretagne – they have supported and sustained the Studio for six years, invested in its renovation. We thank the Metropolitan area and the Departmental Council for its accompaniment of the Company in its work and expansion in the area.

We thank the DRAC and the Regional Council of Brittany who have defended the project from the beginning and continue to do so!   

We’re moving! Stay in touch; the office and headquarters of the company will be staying in Vannes.

Jour et Nuit - Creation 2019

Text

Artists’ words: what do you think of when you hear Jour et Nuit (Night and Day)? 

...Unity,
Dawn and dusk.
The only moments when night and day meet,
Transformation, a static voyage, a cycle,
An impossible meeting of shadow and light, alternating, luminous night, silent day, 
Life, death, birth
Aenaon [αεναον] ...  

The nine dancers will embody their dream, their energy, Eros, darkness, secrets in an interlacing of paths, of singular landscapes.  

Rehearsals: at Studio 8 in April, at the Manège de Reims in July, at the Coupole Saint-Louis/ Alsace and at the CCN of Tours in September, are nomadic, responding to invitations we receive from our partners. They will begin again in December, January and February in Paris, Strasbourg, Montpellier and Belfort!

serie choregraphique

Here we present a rendezvous which will include the choreographic and scenic universes of some of today’s artists.  

Fictionalizing your sensations. In this workshop, Julie Nioche will invite each participant to explore his/her sensations using several different sensation-based practices. The idea will be to name them and to fictionalize them in order to create danceable “scores.”

Professionals or teachers of artistic disciplines who are interested in exploring the creativity of contemporary dance creation, we invite you to join Julie Nioche at CECAP Lorient

Thursday and Friday October 25 - 26, 10:00 – 5:00 pm  

Fee : 40€    

To register : compagnieeskemm@wanadoo.fr

Beginning in 2015, these choreographic series were initiated by the Département of Morbihan, the Compagnie Catherine Diverrès and the Compagnie Eskemm.
