Description
Join us for an informal peek into the creative process of Leïla Ka and Bintou Dembélé, two award-winning French choreographers working at the intersection of street and contemporary dance styles. Ka and Dembélé will introduce their work, which will be performed by undergraduate dancers from USC Kaufman and students from the Conservatoire national supérieur de musique et de danse de Paris (Paris Conservatory) in a true transatlantic exchange. The performance will be followed by a Q&A facilitated by Muriel Maffre, Director of Dance at the Paris Conservatory, and faculty from USC Kaufman.
The performances are presented as part of City of Angels / City of Light, a transatlantic dance exchange and event series connecting choreographers and students from the Paris Conservatory with the USC Kaufman School of Dance. The exchange will foster artistic growth through cross-cultural collaboration, celebrate the vibrancy of contemporary dance in Los Angeles and Paris, and contribute to the discourse on global practices.
