Victoria Dauberville : classique?

Victoria Dauberville, an artist known for challenging the conventions of classical ballet, presents her first show: classic?

Follow a ballerina who literally escapes from her music box to discover an entirely new world for herself. To find herself again. Like a doll, symbol of a discipline in which every movement is imposed and measured to the millimeter, the ballerina flees what nevertheless shaped her. She discovers herself through multiple encounters. As she moves through new spaces, she encounters new worlds, discovers other ways of dancing and other ways of existing on stage. Step by step, how can she detach herself from the constraints of traditional ballet and find her own path—a dance that is truly hers?

A new impulse surges from within. An impulse of the heart. A ballet that is not quite so classical. No charming prince, no predetermined trajectory, no imposed code. A quest for self, a ballet of turning points. Here, the aim is not to reproduce an ideal, but to question what it really means to dance. With others, and with oneself. An invitation to see ballet from a new angle, to try to step outside the framework and conventions, and make room for the unexpected and for laughter.

This choreographic journey combines traditional ballet with modern influences such as hip-hop, contemporary dance and the unpredictable.

To find herself again. Like a doll, symbol of a discipline in which every movement is imposed and measured to the millimeter, the ballerina flees what nevertheless shaped her.
