As part of the Cannes Côte d'Azur Dance Festival, the TNN welcomes the CNN - Ballet de Lorraine for a female triptych bringing together three major figures of contemporary choreography.
A wonderfully challenging evening, reflecting the great diversity of a company whose repertoire constantly explores new artistic frontiers.

- MALÓN -

Created in 2024 • Piece for 23 performers
Choreography Ayelen Parolin

In Malón, choreographer Ayelen Parolin transforms her piece into a liberating outpouring, a pop celebration set to percussive music in vibrant colors, where the individualities of the dancers, with their different styles and physiques, are united by the desire to form a common body.

Ayelen Parolin
Born in Argentina and based in Brussels, Ayelen Parolin was first a performer before creating some twenty pieces to date, both within her own structure, RUDA, and for numerous international companies.

- THE FUGUE -

Presented in 1970 by the Twyla Tharp Dance Company • Piece for 3 performers
Introduced in the repertoire of the CCN - Ballet de Lorraine in 2015 and revived in 2025
Choreography by Twyla Tharp

The Fugue, created in 1970 by Twyla Tharp, is a trio piece written to Johann Sebastian Bach's Musical Offering, a score built around a twenty-time theme, presented in twenty variations. Each of the three performers represents a musical register: bass, alto, soprano.

Twyla Tharp
With over 160 creations to her credit, Twyla Tharp has been a leading choreographer in the American modern dance scene for 50 years. Her repertoire blends modern dance, jazz, and classical ballet.

- WORKS -

Recreation 2025 • Piece for 10 performers
Choreography Maud Le Pladec

Director of the CCN - Ballet de Lorraine since January 2025 and Dance Director of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, Maud Le Pladec is creating a new version of her piece, Works. Based on Beethoven's 7th Symphony, Works reflects all the inventiveness and precision that characterize the choreographer.

Maud Le Pladec
A choreographer since 2010 with Professor, Maud Le Pladec took over the leadership of the CCN - Ballet de Lorraine in January 2025 after directing the Centre chorégraphique national d'Orléans for seven years.
