Spotlight


A deliciously naughty valentine to Paris, Fêtes de la Nuit celebrates life, love and all things Parisian, weaving together a pulsating collage of dance, music, language and drama. Set in a sidewalk café in 21st century Paris, Fêtes reveals that from first kisses to eternal bonds, a quiet truth remains: it is always love that makes us human. Fêtes de la Nuit, translated as “celebrations of the night”, sensually expresses the beauty, complexity and passion of the human condition in relationship to the divine experience of lust and love.


Kim Weild acknowledges Park Avenue Armory for residency in association with the development of this work.

It’s Not That Quiet…

It’s the Holiday season, that time between Christmas and New Year’s when all seems quiet.  The hallways seem vacant and the offices are dark as everyone takes time off from work to enjoy the season with their loved ones, and yes, play with the new toys they got for Christmas.  (What did you get?)

Things may seem just as quiet here on Spotlight.  But looks can be deceiving.

Emails are flying across the internet, scripts are being read and re-read, phones are ringing off the hook, sketches are being scribbled furiously, bold and exciting ideas passing around and evolving into forms never envisioned when the idea first popped into someone’s head.  Cast!  Creatives!  We’re all brimming with the suspense!

And all in preparation for that one BIG day next week.  When FINALLY, we all get together in one room for the first time as one big happy Fêtes Family, ready to work our craft, and bring you into the exciting and sensuous world of Dance…Drama…Love…PARIS!

And when rehearsals start next week, Spotlight will be there to begin our journey together, you and Spotlight, towards Fêtes de la Nuit in February.

So, really, it’s not that quiet around here.  Honest!

(In the meantime, PLEASE have a very SAFE New Year’s Eve.)
