Shows - Europa Danse Company

The 2024-2025 season will consist of the already acclaimed “ROMEO+JULIETTE” and the bright new “DANCE 2.0“.

The shows can be adapted on demand to a shorter version, more captivating for younger audiences (from 6 yo). For the company, it is of great importance to bring the next generations to open to the art of dance and to help them understand it.

Through our productions, we can attract both young children and teenagers. We can introduce them not only to dance but also to the music behind it. Young students will also identify more easily with young professional dancers than with people with a greater age difference.

It is the story of an impossible but universal and undying love. It is a tragedy that crosses through the ages without ever stopping to shake people up. Shakespeare made Romeo and Juliet the heroes of all the stymie love stories

Since its creation in 1597, the Shakespearian play inspires and is the subject of multiple adaptations on the screen (big or small), in theatres, … Romeo and Juliet becomes a musical, reinvent itself in West Side Story or Grease.

How can we tell their story in our contemporary age? How do we go back to the essence of the story line to inject it into our society?

This new creation will vibrate in the rhythm of Berlioz’s and Prokofiev’s music added to other genre which will put our ballet right into our period. This story concerns everyone. We all were teenager once, even if it is a bit far for us to remember. We all had that moment where our hearts might have stopped for the person we love. Whether it is in 1597 or in 2022, teenagers are overwhelmed by the same emotions and so, can relate to the turmoil of Romeo and Juliet.

We want our ballet to be innovative and current. It will present emotions, feelings of the dancers. They will actively participate to the creation of the ballet. We want to create another story that will keep the essence of the Shakespeare’s play but will add modernity in it. Maybe it will be about two people from two different countries. Or people who are in their identity development. Or maybe it will be about two boys loving each other with Mercutio and Romeo as a cursed couple. How would this young love develop with so much love and so many obstacles? Will it result into death? Will it be a bloodshed and as violent as written?

Romeo and Juliet is not only about passionate love, it is also a sumptuous occasion to learn about love and to change close minds. Because everyone has the right to love and to be loved.

DANCE 2.0 ticket

The show is an evening that will be enjoyed to the rhythm of great masterpieces. The lyricism, the melodies, the madness and the grandeur of these composers take us from the shadows to the light, for an evening full of emotions. Even if the pieces are already wellknown and recognized, modern ballet will give them another reading. It will not be a classic evening, but a transposition of baroque and romantic works into our contemporary era.

This show will be composed of four ballets by four choreographers: … ,Laurent DROUSIE.
