    The Firehall Arts Centre is thrilled to present the premiere of Contes Cruels choreographed and directed by Serge Bennathan from Thursday, May 23 to Sunday, May 26, 2018.
     
    Produced by Les Productions Figlio, Contes Cruels started as a short piece premiered at the Dancing On The Edge Festival last year, and now comes back to the Firehall stage as a fully formed dance performance written and choreographed by Serge Bennathan.
     
    “Contes Cruels is a journey, a voyage in which we follow a group of individuals trying to make sense together through their efforts, through their desire of going further, not in the name of an aesthetic but a vital need to exist, to live” - Serge Bennathan.
