Mirabelle Ordinaire

Mirabelle Ordinaire (Margot/Dramaturg) was born and raised in Paris and moved to New York for her theatre PhD at Columbia University, which she will complete in May 2011. She started dancing flamenco and tango in Paris as a teenager, and pursued her training in Spain, Argentina (Claudio & Melina, Julio Balmaceda), and in New York with Jose Molina and Mariano Parra (flamenco), Mariana Fresno and Oliver Kolker (tango), and Sabrina Pillars (pilates). Prior to directing her first play in NYC, Pinter’s Dumb Waiter (Arthur Seelen theatre, February 2007), she assisted Robert Wilson on La Fontaine’s Fables (Comédie française) and Andrei Serban on Verdi’s Otello (Opéra Bastille). Her upcoming projects include directing two one-woman operas by Poulenc and Llorca, and directing and dancing in a flamenco show around Garcia Lorca’s New York poetry. She is thrilled to be part of Fêtes de la Nuit again, and to celebrate her third collaboration with Kim.
