Carte blanche
Female dance trio, Carte Blanche is a step in the construction and development of Jann Gallois’s work. She escapes the conventions of her hip hop family. Interactive show, Jann Gallois amuses himself here to leave the reins to the audience by entrusting them the direction of the piece. Just as the writer finds himself face to face with this strength of the blank page representing the infinity of possibilities, this work strengthens the choreographer in her own signature, the fruit of three weeks of laboratory, with all its freshness and surprises.

Gallois, Jann
In 2012 after a strong professional experience as a performer, Jann decided to found her own company, Cie BurnOut, and to write her first own solo piece, P=mg for which she was 9 times awarded by national and international prizes, such as Paris Young Talent Prize and Beaumarchais-SACD Prize in Paris, Solo-Tanz Theater Prize in Stuttgart, Masdanza Prize in Canary Islands, Machol Shalem Prize in Jerusalem, and Gdansk solo dance contest Prize in Poland.
In 2015, Jann Gallois confirmed her artistic signature, combining hip hop and contemporary dance, by creating once again a solo-piece called Diagnostic F20.9, for wich she was nammed “Dance Bearer of Hope” of the year by the german newspaper Tanz.
Based in Paris, she was first supported by the Louis Aragon Theatre in Tremblay-en-France (2016-2017) before being one of the official supported artists of Chaillot – National Theater of Dance (2017-2021) and the Maison de la Danse in Lyon (2018-2019). Since 2020, Jann Gallois has been associated artist at the Paul Eluard Theater in Bezons and at the National Theater of Beauvais. On 2022, April the 15th, she is officially recognized as “Officier de l’ordre des Arts et des Lettres” by the French Ministry of Culture.
In addition to her personal projects, she regularly receives commissions all over the world. In May 2014, she responded to a commission from the MPAA in Paris and created Humanoïde, a piece for 7 amateur dancers, in February 2017 Jann created One Step One Dream in Burkina Faso, a piece for 5 Burkinabe dancers following a commission from the French Institute of Ouagadougou and in July 2017 she co-created with the director Lazare the duet L’éclosion des gorilles au coeur d’artichaut at the Avignon Festival as part of the Sujets à Vif program. In July 2022, Jann also co-created Just your shadow with the famous duet of visual arts Adrien M & Claire B, performed at the Avignon Festival for the Nuit Immersive organized by the Arte’s magazine Tracks and ADAMI.
Each of these creations are unique universes and aesthetics, going from a demanding and precise dance to an asserted theatricality. Since the creation of her company in 2012, Jann Gallois has been in tour with her entire repertory for more than 535 performances in France and abroad (Switzerland, Spain, Italy, England, Germany, Denmark, Israel, Brazil, Japan, Norway, Laos, Russia, Panama, Burkina Faso…)
