On 6 February, the Casino de Paris hosted the second Hope Gala.
An exceptional evening that brought together the great names of French and international dance, in aid of research at the Institut de Myologie.
Proceeds from the Gala will be donated to the Institut de Myologie Association.
Initiated by Laura Arend, dancer and choreographer, and Charlotte Ranson, dancer at the Opéra de Paris, this ballet, specially conceived for this unique evening, brought together prestigious contemporary and classical dance artists to perform original artistic creations and extracts from famous masterpieces.
« We use our bodies to communicate, to take people on journeys, to make them dream. What if, for one evening, we could get together to do just that for children, their families and research! » emphasizes Laura Arend.
