Within this collective, Millepied is looking for collaborations with other art forms, with a view to moving into new frontiers of dance.

Dance Project will present a programme with Merce Cunningham’s radical piece Winterbranch, William Forsythe’s Quintett, which is seldom performed, and Reflections, a new piece by Millepied himself.Running time 1 hour 30 minutes including one interval.
