Are you looking forward to coming back to Belgrade and meeting its people again? - I am very happy to return to Belgrade, and that I can share this experience with you. I’m let- ting you discover the ball, but without revealing its secrets in advance. Yes, I will come to Belgrade, be- cause your festival is one important station in the work of every choreographer.
and the dancers are present. We are invited to a big ball that takes place in a fantastic universe, where the attendees wear masks and costumes. It’s a world in which you can communicate with each other and have fun. But also, we, as artists, have the role of in- venting the future. What I was doing was difficult, but I hope everything will be simpler in two years. How difficult was it for you, as a choreog- rapher, to adapt to the virtual concept? - VR motion capture allows the dancer to move in a way that sometimes seems supernatural; it brings a lot of new possibilities to choreography that I had fun with. I actually treated different aspects of this show in the same way that I usually work when cre- ating a performance. Only this time it takes place in a virtual world, instead of being on stage. I’ve been making shows in which different dis- ciplines intertwine since the beginning of my ca- reer. I love to create without boundaries between art forms. I created my universe through collaborations with wonderful artists who also feed my creativity. The audience is encouraged to interact with the dancers and become performers themselves. What does that achieve? - Le Bal de Paris is a show in which celebration represents a very important aspect, and in which the audience also participates. I just wanted the audi- ence to have a good time, and to almost forget that they are in a virtual world, to feel like it’s a real par- ty where you dance all the time. The audience is a part of the story here; they become characters and participate in the narrative.
