EVE MAGOT
Ève Magot is a trans artist, dancer, choreographer, and teacher. She is the author of hybrid pieces combining dance, performance, poetry, and DIY, within which she can live and share utopias, here and now, fighting with perseverance, strength, and gentleness to transform the world towards greater justice and equality.
In 2025 she created PLAN-T, her new home and company, based in Toulouse, France.
Active as a performer since 2009, Eve has collaborated alongside artists such as Stéphanie Aubin, Odile Duboc, Myriam Gourfink, Philippe Grandrieux, Yann Marussich, Julie Nioche, Agathe Pfauwadel & Laurie Giordano, Pascal Rambert, Alban Richard, Nina Santes, and Perrine Valli.
The three pieces The 36th Chamber (2011), Behind the Green Door (2012) and Some Paradises (2015) together constitute a first cycle of works around gravity, exploring the relationship between the environment and our behaviours, our capacity to cohabit and cooperate, and the potential we have to free ourselves by playing with constraints, norms and limitations.
In 2016, Eve co-created the duo piece Magma’s Promises with the French rapper Casey as part of Sujets à Vifs at Festival d’Avignon.
In 2018, she created The Sweet Way for the Reunionese parkour group New Gravity.
As part of a 2017-19 partnership with Théâtre d’Arles, she created The Cyclone Pursuit (2019), as well as a cycle of weekends of artistic practices and reflections on cooperation.
In 2020, Leave Room was created with the doctoral researcher Ludivine Demol as part of the La Beauté du Geste programme (2020) at Théâtre Brétigny. The piece has not been performed yet due to the pandemic.
In 2021, Eve created To the Point, a piece for three performers that twists genders and pelvises, and began work on Time for nothing, a unique performance for two people to take the time to contemplate oneself.
She created the solo Futur Garden / Club Sabotage in 2023-2024 and began research for Trio 3.0—Tenderness has its strategies in 2025-2026.
Between 2011 and 2025, she co-directed LA FRONDE, a mutualist and cooperative production structure, with Nina Santes. They spearheaded the collective artistic and performance project THE NIGHT and worked to share the spaces and resources offered by the institutions with which they collaborated.
Eve also works with local audiences to develop artistic projects in connection with her research, including for participatory creation project (Some Other Paradises), and through various interventions in institutions, hospitals and schools.
She was artist-in-residence at the Échangeur CDCN Hauts-de-France in 2012-2015, associate artist at the Manège de Reims in 2013-2015 and associate artist at the Théâtre d’Arles in 2017-2019.
