Alexander Vantournhout – Through the Grapevine. The 2009-2010 laureate performs a duet with Axel Guérin. The two artists take us on a journey through an offbeat performance revisiting the classic pas de deux. With concentration, effort and humour, they play on their differences in morphology and strength. They help each other and challenge each other to discover their strengths and weaknesses, in an agile fluctuation between the one who leads and the one who is led.

Camille Boitel – Fissure. Laureate of the very first promotion in 2001-2002 with his company L’immédiat, Camille Boitel has created a piece based on the figure of the clown. In this tragi-comic one-man show, the clown’s obsession with security systematically transforms the safety objects that populate the stage into sources of danger. King of digression and debacle, nothing stops him. Not even his funny deaths, which tirelessly punctuate the uninterrupted ballet of his mistakes.
