Through the combined talent and experience of all the members of the group and of our various different partners, we have been able to create meaningful artistic projects which have already proved successful on several occasions and which are an integral part of Compagnie Impérial’s DNA.
One of the most memorable of these projects for Compagnie Impérial was Rêves Parties, a “colossal”, “unparalleled” undertaking which ran from 2017 to 2021 at the Léo-Larguier school in La Grand-Combe. Founded as a Company of Artists in association with the Cratère national stage in Alès, Rêves Parties was a mix of text, music, and graphic and audio-visual art, with contributions from artists such as Dimoné (vocalist), Vincent Vabre (actor), Alex Flory (sound engineer), Thibaut Lozenguez and Iskander Benlachtar (video), Gérald Rigaud (town crier), Pierre-Jean Bréaud (circus performer), and Thibaut Soulas (double bass). It taught us a different way of working, with territorial stakeholders, the National Education system, and heads of specialist establishments.
