'HUIS CLOS 2010' – 3rd edition
From Friday October 8th to sunday 10th, 2010

Public repetition Saturday October 9th 5pm , (free)
Final Performance at 8pm on October 10th, (10$).

With: Deepayan Acharjya (music), Ariane Dubé-Lavigne (dance), Philomène Gallez (dance), Lily Lapierre (dance), Mariane Leger (dance and performance), Maelstrom (poetry).

Participating in the Huis Clos is a way to experiment with contemporary dance through a unique creation process, where five individual artists have been selected to create a collective work. For three days, the participants will be in a closed retreat at studio Fleur d’Asphalte. The final choreography will be presented to the public at the end of the retreat, and the artists will be able to exchange with the public about the work and the process leading to the work.

The Huis Clos will take place from October 8th to 10th 2010 at the Fleur d’Asphalte studio. The arrival time on Friday will be determined according to the availability of the participants.

Conditions and prerequisites:
The Huis Clos is an intense collective experience that will last 50 or so hours. This means that in addition to creating a new choreography, artiste have to share meals and a common rest/sleeping area. They must commit to stay with the group for the entire duration of the production process and actively participate to its realization.

There are no grants supporting this project, and while Fleur d’Asphalte is proud to host this intensive creation residence free of charge, participants are asked to cover their own food costs.

Tickets sales for the presentation will be used to cover a portion of the expenses incurred by Fleur d’Asphalte in organizing and presenting this event.
