Christophe Fiat
Before becoming, in 2009, the associate writer at the Théâtre de Gennevilliers, Christophe Fiat taught philosophy, published several books, imagined a considerable number of performances around sound poetry, then around the fictional and choreographed language of dance pieces. An author, director, composer and choreographer, he has been developing, for over 10 years, experiments that make him an artist committed to theatre performances open to the most diverse forms of art. Since 2002, he has specially been devoting himself "to the icons of mass culture," from Batman, to Lady Diana, Stephen King or Courtney Love. Present for the first time at the Festival d'Avignon in 2004, within the framework of the Vingt-cinquième heure, he returned in 2007 with La Jeune Fille à la bombe and Stephen King Stories, then in 2010, this time within the framework of Sujets à Vif, to present Laurent Sauvage n'est pas une Walkyrie, the first step of a project that led him to show L'Indestructible Madame Richard Wagner this year.
