The Institut français is organising a Dance FOCUS from 15 to 19 June as part of the Nomadanse travelling festival in Brittany. This FOCUS on contemporary dance and creation will look at the presentation of intimate, in situ, hybrid, contemporary and hip-hop creations, of young choreographers whose choreographic forms interrogate the processes of choreographic writing. In order to encourage exchanges and collaborations, meetings with French programmers are also planned.
