Adequate focuses its fluid dance, while dialogues and exchanges, around a founding question to its repertoire: our relationship to the other; relationships in love or fraternal, all against the intimate or at the heart of the professional sphere, of those who base us or pass through us.
A quest on identity and the world as it will be embodied by ample and generous movements that rub against a luminous impertinence, and must, according to the strong creed of Adequate, not to exclude, on the contrary to bring the audiencetogether.
With 8 pieces in the repertoire in 2020, the company is developing in a progressive and solid way, while gaining the confidence of professionals and the recognition of the public. It is continuing to establish itself in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region, developing its national influence, and its international openness. The fluid and generous dance, driven by Lucie and David Augeai Gernez is constantly renewing itself and enriched by collaborations.
In addition to its multiple repertoire made up of different forms (solo, duo, quartet, large groups …) the company also invests with its pieces in very different spaces (historical, industrial or natural heritage, media libraries …)
Since its creation, it has always been keen to make the art of choreography known to as many people as possible, through the dissemination of its pieces, and by going out to meet those to whom it is addressed.
