Festival Danses et Continents Noirs
(November)
Dances and Black Continents Festival
With Marie-Claude Pietragalla in 2006 and Carolyn Carlson in 2007, the International "Dance in Toulouse" Festival has established itself as the major event for dance-lovers in the Toulouse conurbation.
To celebrate its 10th anniversary, "Dance in Toulouse" is presenting a new aesthetic direction from 21 to 30 November 2008 based on an artistic project by choreographer James Carlès: Dances and Black Continents.
Ideas such as "roots", "memory" and "repertoires" will emerge from this theme with the finest contemporary black choreographers, such as Georges Momboye, Bill T.Jones, the James Carlès company etc.
The Dances and Black Continents Festival is keen to reveal choreographers from all horizons and is offering a "45 € Discovery Package" covering 3 artists from the "African Diaspora Consortium": Nora Chipaumiré, Fred Bendongué and Sheron Wray.
