Bénédicte Billiet
b. 1954, Lille (FR)
Bénédicte Billiet was born in 1954 in Lille (France). After finishing her Ballet studies at the Conservatoire National de Paris, she entered the Ballet de Lyon in 1972. Having worked there for three years, she returned to Paris in 1975 and followed the classes of Peter Goss, who later engaged her in his company. She then danced in the first company of Dominique Bagouet and with other French choreographers, until Pina Bausch engaged her in 1981 in her Wuppertaler Tanztheater. There she danced until 1989. After a breakaway period, she returned back to Pina's company in 2001 to work for the archive and as an assistant and a co-rehearsal director for some pieces of the repertory, particularly for the restaging of Kontakthof; with seniors, later with teenagers, too. Since May 2020 she works as a freelancer. She created the duo “Entretemps au Grenier” with her daughter, Sophia Otto. It was shown in Germany, Kreta, Spain, Japan …

Pina Bausch
b. 1940, Solingen (DE)
born 1940 in Solingen, died 2009 in Wuppertal, received her dance training at the Essen Folkwang University under the direction of Kurt Jooss. Here she learns an excellent dance technique. When Wuppertal director Arno Wüstenhöfer hired her as a choreographer for the 1973/74 season, she soon renamed the ensemble Tanztheater Wuppertal. Under this name, the company gained international recognition over the years, although it was initially controversial. Their combination of poetic and everyday elements decisively influences the international development of dance. Winner of the highest prizes and honors worldwide, Pina Bausch is one of the most important contemporary choreographers.
