StopGAP Dance Company - Corpus / Miniatures
November 07, 08 & 10th at CND

"We cannot do this", this is a phrase bannished from the StopGAP company vocabulary. Actually, the team enthousiasm carry on an all different philosophy: "Our richness lies in our differences". With or without handicap, the 4 cast members of this company and their guest choregraphers are developping pieces and projects mixing virtuosity and imagination, provocation, humour and emotion. Presented for the first time in France, the cast choose a two piece program.

Corpus share with the audience its happy energy, its lightness and never ending speed glorifyng the dancers qualities.

Miniatures belongs to a musical fairy tales collection with a score composed by Jules Maxwell. Each piece is given to a choregrapher and take the shape of a fun challenge to pick. A kind of a breaking wave where dance is lively at first and disturbing and sentimental next, producing a paradoxal storytelling. CND offered the company to realise its dream to invite a french artist in this adventure. The encounter with Nathalie Pernette has been deciding; The British company and the French choregrapher shares two essential qualities: a free spirit and a certain taste for novelty.

Interpreted by Lucy Bennett, Laura Jones, Chris Pavia and Dan Watson
