Imagine, if I had not been sitting next to Damien Jalet at the dinner table the other night I might never have had the opportunity to be truly introduced to his work. I will show you one more piece of his tomorrow.

DINO DINCO : SHAKE WHAT YA MAMA GAVE YA

If you're in Los Angeles in the coming days, don't miss this crew. (Or, if you're all fancy like that, fuel up your Lear jet for a hot night of modern dance.) Ryan Heffington never disappoints.

"Au nombre des choses" report by Justin Morin

Dear Shaded Readers, I would like to share with you these pictures taken from the piece "Au nombre des choses".  “Au nombres des choses” is a creation by Compagnie Mi-Octobre. In this dream-like piece, shadows are alive and become independent creatures. It’s amazing to see how Serge Ricci and his dancers create  visual effects from nothing. If you like Michel Gondry’s work, you’ll surely enjoy this show. From the carpet man to the surrealist disco quartet (one of my favorite moment), “Au nombre des choses” is like a broken kaleidoscope: full of poetry and reflections. Next representations: 26/02 in Torcy, salle Lino Ventura, 07/03, theater Le Vanves.
