"The audience is the final element that gives life to a dance."
Andrew Skeels
A former dancer at Les Grands Ballets, Andrew Skeels is the artistic director of Skeels Danse. His work has been presented at l'Amphithéâtre de l'Opéra Bastille, Grand Théâtre de Genève, Palais des Festivals de Cannes, Grand Théâtre de la Ville de Luxembourg, Festival Quartiers Danses Montréal, Festival des Arts de Saint-Sauveur, WestWave Dance Festival San Francisco, as well as companies such as Colorado Ballet, and Kansas City Ballet.
Skeels’ choreographic language reflects his ever-expanding curiosity and love for the art of dance, and his cinematic approach echoes his training as a film editor. He offers multiple points of entry into his work in order to connect with the public – rich storyline, dynamic performance, innovative movement, and powerful music.
His production for the Théâtre de Suresnes, Finding Now was the Grand Prize Winner for Best Show of the Year at the 2018 Grands Prix de la Critique in Paris. He is the winner of the 2015 Hannover Think Big Choreographic Residency Competition and received the 2013 Prix Coup de Cœur du Public from the Festival Quartiers Danses Montréal.
