PRINCESS STREET MEMORIES

A dance movement in the city, in the street. To remember this place in Abidjan. This nightlife district. A hangout for young people and a now-extinct space for freedom.

«A danced movement in the same direction. While highlighting the uniqueness and the individual’s performance, one component part of a group’s wealth».

To invest this public space, where the everyday life is told. A place where humans come and go, rub against one another and confront each other to generate ideas. A dance movement in the city to reach out to others. To examine the public space and to offer alternative glances.

To create an interaction between actors and members of the audience. Princess street memories is based upon the participation of all dancers. Beginners, professionals and laypersons, who are eager to get used to the bodily practice as a sharing moment with an inquiring or not public of all ages.
