MIMESIS Plateau de la créativité des Arts du Mime et du Gestes MIMESIS Creative Stage of the Arts of Mime and Gesture

MIMESIS est un manifeste vivant, un état des lieux de la création contemporaine autour des Arts du Mime et du Geste. Douze compagnies venant de Paris, Londres, Toulouse, Carcassonne, Besançon et Périgueux investissent Comme Vous Émoi à Montreuil le temps d'une soirée unique. Un large éventail de formes courtes qui témoignent de la diversité d'approches d'une dramaturgie corporelle.

Théâtre gestuel, mime, masques, théâtre des mains, mime-corporel, théâtre visuel, danse et stylisme, théâtre corporel, mouvement et matière, butô-arts plastiques et performance, physical theatre... c'est ainsi que les artistes invités définissent chacun la nature de leur travail. Mais pour cette première soirée MIMESIS, c'est en se reconnaissant d'une seule et même famille, celle des Arts du Mime et du Geste, qu'ils vont se retrouver et partager le fruit de leur création.

Avant et après le spectacle il sera possible de se restaurer sur place et d'échanger avec les artistes autour d'un verre.

Les participants de la soirée sont: Théâtre des Grands Chemins, Compagnie Racines de Poche, La compagnie des Mimes, Compagnie L Danse, Sangfroidgitan, Théâtre L'écoutille, Projectyl, Energinmotion, Autour du Mime, Hippocampe, Les Éléphants Roses et Platform 88

MIMESIS : Chez Aristote, désigne la manifestation sensible des caractères cachés de l’homme : Ethos (éthique) Rhuthmos (Rythme) Harmonia (Harmonie) Logos (Logique). C’est à dire une expression ou une représentation et non une imitation… — Robert - Dictionnaire historique de la langue française

MIMESIS is a living manifesto, an overview of contemporary creation in the arts of Mime and Gesture. Twelve companies from London, Paris, Toulouse, Carcassonne, Besançon and Périgueux bring a unique evening to Comme Vous Émoi in Montreuil. A wide range of short forms that reflect the diversity of approaches to corporeal drama.

Gestural theater, mime, masks, theater of the hands, Corporeal Mime, visual theater, dance and design, physical theater, movement and matter, butoh plastic arts and performance ... thus the guest artists each define the nature of their work. But for this first MIMESIS evening, it is by recognizing a single family, that of the arts of Mime and Gesture, that they will come together and share the fruits of their creation.

Before and after the show it will be possible to eat there and interact with the artists over a drink.

The participants of the evening are: Théâtre des Grands Chemins, Compagnie Racines de Poche, La compagnie des Mimes, Compagnie L Danse, Sangfroidgitan, Théâtre L'écoutille, Projectyl, Energinmotion, Autour du Mime, Hippocampe, Les Éléphants Roses and Platform 88.

MIMESIS: For Aristotle, refers to the sensory manifestation of hidden characters of man: Ethos (ethics) Rhuthmos (Rhythm) Harmonia (Harmony) Logos (Logic). That is to say, an expression or representation, not an imitation ... - Robert - Historical Dictionary of the French language
