Hugo Arcier's Clinamen
Digital artist Hugo Arcier's daring project reveals the quintessence of dance and movement. Using motion capture, he strips down the bodies of three dancers on the stage of the Opéra Garnier, leaving only the to-and-fro of interlacing atoms. Thus begins a spellbinding dance behind the scenes of a futuristic Opera House.

Vibrato by Sébastien Laudenbach
Evoking the recollections of Charles Garnier's widow, Sébastien Laudenbach transforms the Palais Garnier into a temple of sensuality and eroticism.

Nephtali by Glen Keane
The legendary Disney cartoonist, inspired by the grace of dancer Marion Barbeau, brings to life a dancer in a fairy-tale world.

Claude Lévêque's Lac perdu
The Opera – a temple of artifice and props - provides the inspiration for visual artist Claude Lévêque's dreamlike roaming through a world of ballet shoes, wigs, tutus, bubbles and clouds... an invitation to reverie!

L’Entretien by Félix de Givry and Ugo Bienvenu
What if mankind became extinct and only humanoid creatures remained? The duo of directors imagine Mikki the maintenance robot, hailing from the world of cartoonist Ugo Bienvenu and projecting the images of a mysterious dancer on the stage of the Opéra Garnier every evening.

Les Indes Galantes by Clément Cogitore
An explosive choreographic reinterpretation of an excerpt from Rameau's ballet by Krump dancers.
