Parce que j'ai l'impression que nous avons tous besoin de danser ...
​
De se rencontrer, de se parler, de s'embrasser et de partager une danse.
​
Simplement se retrouver unis à nos différences qui depuis des décennies avec l'aide de la musique ont crée une ÉGALITÉ joyeuse et harmonieuse ... Juste le temps d'une soirée, juste le temps d'une danse.
​
Le rêve d'être uni la nuit qui pourrait être possible le jour.

WE ALL NEED TO

DANSE/
Le premier langage de l'homme primitif s'est manifesté en premier par des actes spontanés, puis par des gestes et des pas. Par étapes successives, il atteint sa forme la plus élaborée, le danse dite "classique" ou "académique", codifiée parrègles impératives. Refusant ces règles, le moderne mouvement né dans les années 1920-1930 danse moderne établie de façon permanente 1965-1970 une nouvelle tendance apparaît, la danse post-moderne. Depuis ses origines, la danse a privilégié le corps, le parfait instrument de la langue des inexpérimentés. Païen, religieux, guerriers, orgiaques, les danses participaient au la vie de l'homme. Frappements de mains, coups de pied, puis voix et musique formé la base rythmique de la danse.

Soul Train is an American music-dance television program which aired in syndication from October 2, 1971, to March 27, 2006. In its 35-year history, the show primarily featured performances by R&B, soul, dance/pop, and hip hop artists, although funk, jazz, disco, and gospel artists also appeared. The series was created by Don Cornelius, who also served as its first host and executive producer.
​
The origins of Soul Train can be traced to 1965 when WCIU-TV, an upstart UHF station in Chicago, began airing two youth-oriented dance programs: Kiddie-a-Go-Goand Red Hot and Blues. These programs—specifically the latter, which featured a predominantly African Americans group of in-studio dancers—would set the stage for what was to come to the station several years later. Don Cornelius, a news reader and backup disc jockey at Chicago radio station WVON, was hired by WCIU in 1967 as a news and sports reporter. Cornelius also was promoting and emceeing a touring series of concerts featuring local talent (sometimes called "record hops") at Chicago-area high schools, calling his traveling caravan of shows "The Soul Train". WCIU-TV took notice of Cornelius's outside work and in 1970, allowed him the opportunity to bring his road show to television.
After securing a sponsorship deal with the Chicago-based retailer Sears, Soul Train premiered on WCIU-TV on August 17, 1970, as a live show airing weekday afternoons. Beginning as a low-budget affair, in black and white, the first episode of the program featured Jerry Butler, The Chi-Lites, and the The Emotions as guests. Cornelius was assisted by Clinton Ghent, a local professional dancer who appeared on early episodes before moving behind the scenes as a producer and secondary host.

Le Palace is a Paris theatre located at 8, rue du Faubourg-Montmartre in the 9th arrondissement. It is best known for its years as a nightclub.
Created by impresario Fabrice Emaer in 1978, intellectuals, actors, designers, and American and European jetsetters patronised the club for its flamboyant DJ Guy Cuevas, extravagant theme parties and performances, and Emaer's rule-breaking mix of clubgoers that threw together rich and poor, gay and straight, black and white.
​
After Emaer's death in 1985, Le Palace changed hands and names several times before reopening in 2008 as a theater and concert space of the same name.
​
Constructed in the 17th century, the building on rue on Faubourg Montmartre already had a modern history as theater and dance hall before Fabrice Emaer turned it into one of the hottest nightclubs in Paris.
Baptized Le Palace as early as 1912, by 1923 it served as a music hall hosted by Oscar Dufrenne and Henri Varna who had already directed le Concert Mayol, l'Empire, le Moncey Music-Hall and the Bouffes du Nord. The two changed the name to Eden en Palace in 1923, and in collaboration with the London Palace, had a long run engaging artists like dancer and singer Harry Pilcer and musical clown Grock.
In 1931, Oscar Dufrenne took the bold step of changing the theater into a cinema, a move which came to an end when his nude corpse was discovered on site in 1933, inspiring rumors of rough trade gone bad. Shortly afterwards, his partner Henry Varna changed the space back into a music hall which he called the "Alcazar." It became a cinema again in 1946, recovering its original name and gradually fading from view.
The decrepit building was finally acquired by writer and theater director Pierre Laville in 1975. He began producing experimental theater there, and came to the attention of then Minister of Culture, Michel Guy, who used the space for his Festival d'Automne (Autumn Festival).
When impresario Fabrice Emaer decided to open a place large enough to rival Studio 54 in New York, it was Michel Guy who suggested he buy Le Palace.

PLAYLIST POUR VOGUER
CHEZ VOUS
Parce que je pense que nous avons tous besoin de danser ...
​
Se retrouver sur les pistes de danse, où chaque mouvement développé sur le rythme est une possible ouverture vers l'autre. Laissez-vous aller aux aléas d'une rencontre avec un inconnu, tissant des liens éphémères ou sur une longue période permettant d'échanger, d'apprendre et de s'ouvrir aux autres ...
Émancipez-vous grâce à l'échange des pas de danse, aux éclats de rire.
​
Tout simplement à ce désir d'être tous réunis sans jugement.
C'est pourquoi la danse me manque tellement ...
Avec amour
Nicolas
