Ballet Preljocaj
Since founding his company, now composed of 30 dancers, Angelin Preljocaj has created 60 choreographic works, ranging from solo to larger formations. The Ballet performs about 120 dates per year on tour, in France and abroad.
Pavillon Noir
The Pavillon Noir is where Ballet Preljocaj works and creates, a permanent base where the choreographer can follow the creative process of his pieces until they are performed on stage.
