Based on the essential, or inessential, or strictly necessary, based on almost nothing, such as being able to say there’s life, life, life! Ah, love, love! Ah, death! Anywhere, outside, inside, at home, in the theatre, in the square, to say: ah, life, ah love, love, ah death to death!
The company has chosen different forms of conversations with a variety of accents, taking different forms and using them without separating them: movement, text in three languages (Catalan, Spanish and French), dance, song and the rhythms coming from, among others, flamenco zapateado or tap dancing

Toujours après minuit
In 1997 Brigitte and Roser combined forces to found the company. When they met, the multiplicity of cultures and experiences of each led them to create shows in which theatre, dance and music were linked. They define themselves as “authors of shows, directors, choreographers, writers and interpreters.”
