MAGNIFIQUES

Une éphémère éternité

Michel Kelemenis
30.01.2026

From baroque to hyper-contemporary, from classical to breakdance, MAGNIFIQUES defies all codes and techniques, in a whirlwind of prodigious dances. J.S. Bach’s powerful Magnificat in D major here combines perfectly with the electro beats of Angelos Liaros-Copola. All that counts is the joy, free and irrepressible, of dancing. And it suffices for the nine dancers to show the full extent of their talent. In this seemingly inexhaustible and irrepressible profusion of energy, they’d even have the urge to sing. And it’s magnificent.

An introduction to the show by the artistic team will take place at 7.15pm (FR).
