About
Revealed on the French stage thanks to the Monfort (Paris) in 2013, the DAKH DAUGHTERS are now pursuing an international career (Europe, USA, Canada). Initially students of Vlad Troistsky at the Kyiv Conservatory, they went on to join Dakh Theatre, a leading Ukrainian company known for its militant creations.
The Dakh Daughters have already created numerous works combining song, music and theater, and offer audiences the spectacle of their fertile, enterprising anger.
In 2015, they collaborated with Lucie Berelowitstch, director and co-director of the CDN de Vire, on the creation of Antigone after Sophocles, then, in 2016, with Stéphane Ricordel, director and co-director of the Monfort, on “Terabak de Kyiv”, a cabaret/circus creation.
After a meeting in Kyiv, Pierre Thilloy wrote arrangements for symphony orchestra for several of their songs. This fabulous encounter between their rock and classical worlds premiered in January 2022 with the Orchestre national d’Avignon-Provence.
That same year, Olivier Py invited them to share the stage with Angélique Kidjo and the Orchestre national Avignon-Provence for the closing night of the Festival d’Avignon and his show Miss Knife et ses soeurs.
On their arrival in France after the Russian aggression, with the support of the CDN de Vire, the group created Danse Macabre (2022) under the direction of Vlad Troitsky. In 2023, Lucie Berelowitsch directed them in an adaptation of Pirandello’s play Les Géants de la Montagne.
