Guest of Moviment

Biography

Emmanuelle Vo-Dinh is a French dancer and choreographer.

 

Following a stint as a performer under choreographer François Raffinot, Emmanuelle Vo-Dinh created the Sui Generis company in 1997. Initially affiliated with La Passerelle, the National Theatre of Saint-Brieuc, followed by the Triangle in Rennes, Emmanuelle Vo-Dinh was appointed to the management of the National Choreography Centre of Le Havre-Normandy (renamed Le Phare), in 2012. Her project played tribute to contemporary choreography, which she disseminated on a national level to various audiences.

 

She is currently pursuing her work in creation and dissemination, and is collaborating with Solenne Racapé on the Pavillon-s project, which is also open to other artists in the experimental field.
Since the creation of her company, Emmanuelle Vo-Dinh has choreographed more than twenty works, which have been performed notably at the Théâtre de la Ville in Paris, the Avignon Festival (69th edition), the National Theatre of Chaillot, and elsewhere in Europe, Africa, North America and Asia.
