Scratch Company

Tom, Gaëlle and Denis meet around an essential question in their eyes: “How to be positive when it is shit? They will try to answer with a queen in the rain, a slow dance at a first party, the death of a best friend, failed dreams, small victories, the list of the worst shit in the world and above all: juggling.

Co. Scratch

The Scratch company was born in 2013. The company’s universe is based on juggling, scratching, silly choreographies, anticlimax and Belgian surrealism. The manipulation of objects is at the center of the company’s research. The artistic team of the Scratch company is composed of 9 jugglers and 1 juggler who intervene on the different creations: ” T.N.T ” (2013), ” Split ” (2017), ” Mousse ” (2020), ” Akokiya ” (2021), ” Drache Nationale ” – laboratories in progress (spring 2023 release)

In 2021, Gaëlle Coppée received the SACD Prize for the author of juggled creation in France.
