Paris Summer Academy (PSA) is a unique type of professional summer intensive with an interdisciplinary approach to different art forms including Contemporary Dance, Physical Theatre, Performance Art, and Voice among others.
PSA does not fit into the usual dance training program mould. Rather, it is an artistic meeting spot for practical research and innovative performing methods, led by a diverse group of internationally recognised artists and companies. PSA is a project initiated organised by ORIANTHEATRE Dance Company in partnership with the CITÉ INTERNATIONALE DES ARTS DE PARIS and MICADANSES Dance Venue. The program is open to all curious and open-minded dancers, physical theatre actors and performance artists who are willing to expand their skills, abilities and imagination towards a cutting edge horizon.
