Biography

Cécile Da Costa is a French-Portuguese singer, performer and choreographer. She has performed in performances of the Farma in the Cave theatre, of which she has been a member for five years, and has now worked as a performer and choreographer of the Spitfire Company for several years. In the Czech Republic, France, Poland or Greece she leads workshops of physical theatre. In her work, she looks for “voices that can move the body and bodies that can move the voice”. For her solo performance The Narrator, directed by Petr Boháč, she won the Dancer of the Year award in 2018 or the nomination of the Total Physical Awards in Fringe 2017, in this multigenre performance body and voice oscillate between struggle and fragility. For ProFitArt she created her first author’s performance Roselyne.
