ONLINE TICKETING: www.highwaysperformance.org * * * * * * If love and romance are the traditional national preoccupations of France , then who better to evoke these subjects than a beautiful Frenchwoman?Dancer/choreographer/actor/director/performance artist Nathalie Broizat performs with Jarred Cairns, Marnie Castor, Alexis Hunt, Ariadna Rodriguez and Clint Steinhauser in a new movement-based dance theatre piece that “unfolds around the pangs and delights of the heart.”Mlle. Broizat elaborates on the surreal, non-narrative piece that she has created: “Act One deals with the broken heart and the grieving heart. Act Two deals with the healing heart and the heart that is able to love again.”Nathalie Broizat graduated from Paris Dance University , subsequently attending New York ’s Laban/Bartenieff Institute of Movement Studies as a Fulbright Scholar. She has made Los Angeles her home since 2003. A few of the many performances pieces created by her include “Delusion,” “Laugh is Life,” “To love and to hold,” “Destiny,” “Chouchou,” “No Regrets,” much more.
