Virginie Thomas


Virginie Thomas studied Visual Art at the University of Rennes. In 2000, she received her professional designation in dance from the Centre Chorégraphique National de Montpellier, and began working with such French choreographers as Thierry Baë, Anne Lopez, Florence Saul, Dominique Boivin, Emmanuelle Vo-Dinh, Catherine Contour and David Wampach. For the past seven years, she has been a member of the collective, the Clubdes5, developing interdisciplinary research and performance work. She has also collaborated with designer-walker Mathias Poisson, filmmaker Guillaume Robert, and various theatre practitioners. Recently she created a solo piece — "dans le décor", a work centred around a touristic fiction. Virginie is also a member of Les Vraoums, a performative girls’ band.
