Fabien Prioville´s plays all share a common basis of contrasts and opposites. His artistic focus lies on the exploration of the inner emotional world of the human being. He is searching for clear pictures for everyday impressions and observations, shedding light on emotions or converting them into their opposites. He created his first feature-length solo choreography Jailbreak Mind, with which he was also invited to the German Dance Platform 2010.
Fabien Prioville graduated from the Centre National de Danse Contemporaine (CNDC) in Angers. After this, he worked with Édouard Lock and his company La La La Human Steps in Canada before moving to Stockholm to work with Philippe Blanchard. In 1999, he became part of Pina Bausch´s Tanztheater Wuppertal. He has been working as a freelance dancer and choreographer since 2006 with Josef Nadj and Davis Freeman, among others. Remittance work brought him to New York’s Juilliard School and to Japan and Australia. The Fabien Prioville Dance Company is situated in Düsseldorf. Since 2009, it has been cooperating with the tanzhaus nrw, Düsseldorf, with plays moving between performing arts and multimedia.
