In dance, attention will focus on the national premiere of C La Vie, on September 19th, a show by Serge Aimé Coulibaly, one of the most renowned choreographers of the moment, who tells a story crossed by a series of obstacles and no heroes to overcome them, with nine performers on stage.
On September 13th, Edni premieres.
