blanca lo verde & lucile ducron



Blanca explores dance, performance and voice expressions. She studied in SEAD and then worked with cie 111-Aurélien Bory in INVISIBILI, Jan Lauwers and Paul Blackman in Salzburg Festspiele and Natiscalzi DT.
In 2024, Blanca developed her solo work Per-sona in Anghiari Dance Hub, performed in Italy and Brussels. In 2025 she attended the program on voice techniques in Malagola centre directed by Ermanna Montanari and Enrico Pitozzi.
Nowadays she shares her practice Voicing Motion and collaborates with Lucile Ducron, Irene Occhiato, Carla Piris, Laura Castellucci and Adele Cammarata.

Lucile is a performer trained in physical theatre and fine arts. Her work draws from tools such as Butoh, clowning and music, creating raw and unstable stage universes balancing punk chaos with fragile poetry.
She worked in Italy with Atto Due company, Ilaria Cristini and Er Gao, and is currently developing her solo Pauline the Flower Pot, performed in Brussels and Germany. Closely inspired by the work of Brut Movement, she also performs with the punk band Wiepsie Tits and collaborates with musician Joos Vandueren, and dancer Blanca Lo Verde.




lois 0


Between hiding and revealing, two bodies traverse the experience of being two, of
shared solitudes and sparkling exchanges.
A voice that becomes one and divides, that climbs to light and descends to the abyss.
Disguising oneself to enjoy the transformation and asking: what kind of body do we
inhabit today? How does metamorphosis bring life and sharing open to beauty?

natalia vallebona


Natalia Vallebona’s artistic path bridges the raw energy of underground dance cultures with the European contemporary scene. Her research merges the intensity of hip-hop, contemporary dance, and theatrical exploration, developing a powerful, virtuosic, and emotionally charged physical language—at the crossroads of poetry and punk. 

As a performer, she has collaborated with numerous international companies and artists, including Balletto Civile, La Fura dels Baus, C&C / 

Carlo Massari, Trance en danse, Gabriella Maiorino, Dame de Pic / Cie Karine Ponties, Quan Bui Ngoc, Nicolas Vadijslav, Koen Augustijnen, Hedi and Alí Thabet, Ben Fury, Fritz Company among others. 

Since 2014, she has been regularly invited to teach at several major European institutions. 

In 2016, she co-founded the company Poetic Punkers with Faustino Blanchut. In 2021, she created the LOBO Festival, followed by LOBO Zena in 2025, and in the same year inaugurated Congelo – Workspace in Brussels, a permanent space dedicated to the performing arts and the company’s residency venue. Poetic Punkers has presented its creations across Europe, Asia, and the Middle East.




burning paradise


A woman? A road pirate?
Or a rabbit frozen in the headlights of the car about to hit it?

BURN OUT PARADISE explores the parallel between automotive burnout and burnout syndrome as voluntary and involuntary accumulations of energy. Through the physical hybridization of urban and contemporary movement languages, in dialogue with live sound material, the project addresses solitude as a decisive, individual moment - suspended between the choice to surrender and the choice to fight and move forward. The work adopts a nonconformist approach that expresses resilience, hope, and renewal.

JULIa FaRBER



Julia Farber (she/her) is a performer, choreographer, researcher, and anthropologist born in Mexico and based in Brussels. Active across both the European and Latin American artistic scenes, she continuously builds bridges between cultures, practices, and ways of thinking. Deeply rooted in her Mexican heritage, Julia believes in the transformative power of exchange and in the magic that arises when borders are crossed and different perspectives meet.
She co-organizes Top Floor Festival since its beginning.
Alongside her role at Top Floor, she develops her own artistic and anthropological research through performances and choreographic works in Europe and Mexico, and is the creator of MalaCostumbre a creative research laboratory.


The devil is everything that is not God, everything that stirs the body: the blues, llanero singing, rock, jazz, yaraví, bomba, cumbia, reggaeton, salsa—everything that is unleashed, the black and the Indian, the cholo, that which awakens the subterranean melody, that is to say, what is seditious within, what rises up. And we must hear this insurrection […] it is there that we find the new listening that will liberate our body from the empire of beauty, that is to say, what will offer us a new way of thinking and a new sensibility.

SOBRAN


Driven by the devilish rhythms of Cumbia, Sobran is a ritual of reparation that blends mourning and joy in a single gesture.

The five dancers lean into the void left by those who have disappeared, to rekindle memories within their bodies and to shake the weight of injustice.

In conjure with the mothers/ seekers of Latin America, they defy oblivion through vibrant collective dances; thunderous cries and songs of joy; an invitation to uprising and an end to resignation.

Unsubmissive, they shatter the boundaries between themselves to serve a collective need; a profound beat that resists impunity, a surge of pleasure in the face of violence. Everywhere, all the time.

Sobran is a raging breath of fresh air for the right to know and to enjoy.

performers: Florencia Martina, Florencia Papaleo, Paz Moreno, Lola Vera, Valeria Polorena, Julia Farber.
