Margaux Pagès
Margaux Pagès is a dancer with Tanz Heidelberg and, following engagements in France, Schwerin and Chemnitz, is now taking up her fourth engagement here.
Born in France, she received her ballet training in Biarritz and at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Lyon, where she also danced with the junior company. After a year with the junior ballet company of the Conservatoire in Lyon, where she had already had the opportunity to dance in works by Sharon Eyal, Sasha Waltz, Bruno Bouché, Carolyn Carlson and Xenia Wiest, she joined Fábio Lopez’s Compagnie Illicite for a further year, before finally becoming a permanent member of the Ballet X Schwerin ensemble in 2021 under the direction of Xenia Wiest. Here she danced in numerous choreographies by the artistic director, including »Bach Past Present Future«, »Augenblick« and »Firebird«, as well as in »All Long Dem Day« by Marco Goecke, »The Black Square« by Kristina Paulin and »Petrushka« by Irataxe Ansa and Igor Bakovitch.
At the start of the 2024/25 season, she joined Ballett Chemnitz. She danced in Sabrina Sadowska’s productions of »The Nutcracker« and as one of the stepsisters in »Cinderella«. Margaux Pagès took on one of the Four Small Swans in Sadowska and Peci’s »Swan Lake«, and danced in »5 Tangos« by Hans van Manen as well as in Bruno Bouchè’s ballet »Caravaggio«.
At the Chemnitz Ballett, she also created her first ballet, entitled »Wachträume«, in collaboration with Koh Yoshitake.
