Caroline Breton

  • Caroline Breton 

    Caroline Breton is a choreographer and performer. After studying philosophy, she joined the ERACM national school in Marseille, where she launched an artists’ collective that lasted eight years and performed on national stages and at CDN theaters. After ten years in theater working with leading figures such as Robert Wilson, Yves-Noël Genod, Falk Richter and Christiane Jatahy, she pursued her career as a dancer, performing in shows by Marco Berrettini at the Rencontres Chorégraphiques de Seine-Saint-Denis, Théâtre National de la Danse de Chaillot Paris, Théâtre National de Rome and on tour, Christophe Haleb, Simon Tanguy, Johanna Rocard, and Simone Forti, three of whose pieces were revived at the Watermill Center in New York in 2023.

    In 2018, she founded the Karol Karol group with Charles Chemin. They created a series of living dance portraits, I Hope in 2019, figures in 2022 at the Ménagerie de Verre and the Watermill Center.

    In 2021, she created the dance piece De Natura Rerum at La Pop Paris, Plastique Danse Flore in Versailles, and at the Festival d’Avignon.

    In 2023, she was awarded the Beaumarchais-SACD Foundation’s dance writing grant and the Watermill Center’s residency program for EUPHORIA, a duo on the meaning of wonder created in March 2025 at L’étoile du nord in Paris and now on international tour. She is currently developing a trio, AGAPÉ, on the power of friendship, which will premiere at the Atelier de Paris – CDCN in March 2027.

    Her conception of stage design reflects a sensual, sensitive, and humorous relationship with people and things. She surrounds herself with creators—visual artists, lighting designers, composers—who bring to life this naive, technical, and poetic approach to our shared ecosystems.
