FIRST TIME WORKSHOP

Through the project Utopia, UtopiasDelphine Lanson aims to stimulate exchanges between artists of the body, the word and local residents. She invites pairs of artists to explore subjects that animate them, pushing them to the point of utopia. RAP, performative art performances are designed to arouse the curiosity of local residents, ignite a spark, generate the unexpected, and set body and mind in motion for an experience of sharing and embodied collective intelligence. The first of the two new RAPs, created for the Génération Seishun event, sees the actress physically embody the words of Mélissa Dossou, a former student of the Classe à horaires aménagés théâtre at the Hans Arp secondary school (Elsau). A world without borders questions transmission and emancipation. For the second, dancer Louis Gillard and circus artist Jorg Müller invent A World Without Adults. Following an immersion in a school environment, the duo drew on children's games to imagine the consequences of a Neverland Peter Pan style.
