For this 6th edition, the French Institute of Bobo-Dioulasso joined the "Historical Dance Day" to co-produce an exceptional evening. On the theme "Close", we will debate the relationship and relations between traditional and contemporary dance with our guests, choreographers, dancers and researchers. How can we link yesterday's dance and today's dance, how can we integrate the history of dance with modernity? Discussions, film screenings and performances will be on the programme.

The speakers:

  • Alassane CONGO (dancer-choreographer)
  • Blandine YAMEOGO (dancer, choreographer, actress)
  • Etienne LOMPO (Director of the Maison de la Culture of Bobo-Dioulasso)
  • Filibert TOLOGO (dancer, choreographer, initiator of the Historical Dance Days)
  • Ousseni Sako (dancer, choreographer)
