    I've been cast in a new international collaborative project with performances from September 16-18 in Yerevan and Dilijan!

    ==

    LA FORÊT is a part of the choreographic installation À l'Est de Nod by Andréane Leclerc, in which the audience wanders at its own pace through three spaces: The Forest, The Wanderer, and The Abyss.

     

    LA FORÊT will be presented in Armenia with the participation of local artists.

    In collaboration with՝ Nadère arts vivants, CoChoLab Armenia, Tech Degh.
