Cocotte Minute is the development of Guillaume’s 2017 work, staged during the 84th edition of the American Dance Festival (Durham, USA).
The piece aims to highlight the experience of a group of people under pressure. On a massive electro symphony, the bodies dance the violence of the world of yesterday and today.
