From July 2023, Mercedes Dassy, Demestri+Lefeuvre and Damien Jalet are the new associate artists at Charleroi
danse for the next three years. These three companies, who have all followed very different paths, share a highly physical and visual approach to dance, a taste for hybrid forms in their representation of the body, and each in their own way are engaged in issues relating to culture, mythologies and the links between the organic and the technological.
This new series of danced lectures feeds into and supplements the work we do on choreographic culture that already features prominently at the Legs festival.
A danced lecture is to be understood here as a lecture on dance and/or as a dance performing a text or idea.
Charleroi danse is adopting a Pay What You Can pricing system this year. The principle behind it is very simple.
For each performance, tickets will now
be available at three prices. You can choose the “solidarity” price if that makes it easier for you to come. Alternatively, if you can afford to pay a bit more, you can opt for the “support” price, which enables someone else to pay a little bit less for their ticket.
These pricing options (there are always three to choose from) may differ depending on whether it is a show that features in our season or is part of a special event (Festival Legs, Biennale, etc.)
