Our Story
Founded in 1993 by Béatrice Massin, Fêtes Galantes elaborates on the many aspects of baroque dance.
The confrontation between baroque style and contemporary dance gives birth to a specific writing.
By steering clear of any attempt at reconstitution, the company chose to bring forward, in our time, a kind of baroque that would interest the contemporary.
