Choreographer
ANNE PLAMONDON is a choreographer, performer, teacher and curator.
After more than 20 years as a performer on international stages, she made her debut as a choreographer in 2012. With the complicity of theatre director Marie Brassard, she creates her first two solos The Same Eyes as Yours (2012) and Night Mechanics (2017). In 2018, she founds Anne Plamondon Productions in order to carry out her own creative projects and generate new artistic collaborations. Since then, Anne has multiplied her collaborations with important institutions such as the Fall for Dance North Festival in Toronto where she creates the duet Counter Cantor (2018) with the renowned choreographer Emma Portner, as well as Fiddle Embrace (2018), a piece for eighteen students of the Ryerson School of Dance. She has also created works for Alberta Ballet and Arts Umbrella Dance in Vancouver. In the summer of 2020, she choreographs and performs in the short film Espaces vitaux (semi-finalist at the Paris Play Festival), which is part of the project “Une solitude partagée” initiated by the Festival des Arts de Saint-Sauveur.
In 2021, Les Ballets Jazz de Montréal invites him to choreograph Vanishing Mélodies, a large-scale piece set to the music of Patrick Watson, alongside Brazilian choreographer Juliano Nuñes. The following year, after several postponements due to the pandemic, she presents and performs Only You (2020), her duet with dancer James Gregg, at Usine C, the National Arts Centre and Harbourfront Centre, to finally tour the show in Quebec in Fall 2022.
Her latest work, La voix qui conduit, is still in progress. A first version was presented at the Festival des Arts de Saint-Sauveur in August 2022.
By focusing on subjects that resonate deeply with her, she aims to create works that leave a lasting impression, both through their virtuosity and their sensitive authenticity.
