L' Experience Harmaat Fabrice Lambert has been directing and managing the company since 2000: The Harmaat Experience aims at gathering artists from different fields who share a common interest in working on movement. They all nourish a larger reflection on body writing and its environment.
In this spirit, Fabrice Lambert has conceived the following shows: "No body, never mind" and "TOPO", created in 2001, are two aspects of a study on the perception of the body and its diversion through images. These creations invite the audience to redefine its own way of apprehending the body and its environment.
"Dream" (2002) questions the essence of this interrogation through the confrontation of a video and a solo dialoguing together while using a common medium: the performer’s body. In 2003, "Play Mobile" explores this body’s frontiers in a sound arrangement creating a closed environment, confronting the body with its limits.
"Im-posture" (2004) was conceived for two performers and a video director and follows Paul Virilio’s idea of “the full accident”. It is followed by Frédéric Lambert (in collaboration with Frédéric Seguette), presented at the “Sujet à vif” in Avignon.
In 2005, The Alphabet or The audience’s regular pleasures was created in collaboration with the national stage Le Manège. The 26 letters of the alphabet are enacted in 26 propositions, each lasting 15 minutes.
Meutes (2006) for 5 performers and Gravity (solo, 2007) performed by Fabrice Lambert and D’Eux (trio) created at the Rencontres Chorégraphiques Internationales in Seine Saint Denis in 2008.
