Salomé Mooij will also be leading a workshop at the same time in Cour des Marchandises exploring stumbling techniques. It is possible to take part in both events.
The artists invite you to join them for a casual apéritif before the performance, to meet and share a moment together before dancing as a group. To make the table more magical, anyone who wishes is welcome to bring something to drink or nibble on and share it with others.
“I’ve been hosting communal breakfasts since I arrived in France in September 2022: it’s an invitation to spend time together. Above all, it’s an activity that fits into everyday life, something that repeats daily. Gestures and dances emerge even before we meet — walking to get manioc, corn couscous, croissants, pain au chocolat, picking apricots to make jam, arriving early to prepare crepes with the batter from the day before, and so on. You come with whatever you can bring or whatever you want to eat. We gather to enliven the table, and we leave stronger, with “bucho cheio,” as they say in Northeast Brazil — strengthening the body to stay healthy. Beyond just conviviality, breakfast is a place of life, warmth, vitality, and joy: a space of shared abundance. We invite you to join us for this breakfast at apéritif time on Sunday, August 10th at 6 pm at the Cour des Marchandises!”
