Artistic creation is the main activity of CNC danse. Since April 2000, nathalie cornille has created 21 choreographic pieces. This directory is aimed at both young and adult audiences. The shows that can be discovered on tour today are "Pépiements", "Zeste et Papilles", "Ballroom". Two new choreographic pieces are in preparation, "Dormir, rêver peut-être" and "un petit courant d'air". These shows are presented throughout Europe.

Around the creative work, the pedagogical work has an important place in the life of the company. These actions are proposed with CNC danse cultural partners. The aim is to raise awareness and train audiences in artistic practices, mainly in contemporary dance. 

CNC danse is an association supported and subsidized by the Hauts de France Region, the Pas de Calais Department, Creative Europe and the City of Wambrechies. CNC danse cultural partners are all the structures (National Scenes, Cultural Centres, Conventioned Scenes, Cities, National Choreographic Centres), which welcome the company and support artistic projects in the form of co-production, studio hosting, residency, purchase or pre-purchase of shows. These partners are located throughout Europe.

MAIN GOALS AND MISSIONS OF THE ORGANIZATION

CNC danse aims to promote artistic creation, and in particular contemporary dance, in all its forms. The artistic forms proposed can be for the stage, for the outdoors or for any place not intended for entertainment such as a museum or a public garden. By travelling throughout Europe with its shows, CNC danse contributes to the development of audiences and to raising public awareness of themes such as ecology, health, difference, integration, etc... 

MAIN ACTIVITIES OF THE ORGANIZATION

Artistic creation in contemporary dance is CNC danse main activity. This activity involves other events such as the training of the public, cultural and educational activities offered in schools, nurseries, specialized environments (hospitals, people with disabilities), cultural professionals, early childhood professionals, education professionals, professional or amateur artists. A significant proportion of these activities are aimed at early childhood, children and youth. 

HOW WILL THE PROJECT CONTRIBUTE TO AND ENRICH YOUR ORGANIZATION'S ACTIVITIES?

This project is an opportunity for CNC danse:

To enlarge its workspace, 

To create new collaborations for creation and pedagogy, 

To compare and enrich cultural practices, 

To propose a pedagogical approach to contemporary dance based on creation (and not dance technique) in order to develop audiences' perception of dance and theatre performances. 

Amateur practices facilitate access to the arts when they are offered by professional cultural actors whose objective is the development of audiences.
