Three domains of show production

• Daniel Darius and Valérie Onnis built choreographies and directed two spectacles as contemporary creation of tango, co-producted with different theatres ("L'Etoile du Nord" in Paris, Vanve's Theatre, Toulouse's baroque Orchestra). The originality of these spectacles resides in the alliance between, on one side, a dance established in its argentinian tradition and its orginines "porteñas", and on the other hand, a contemporary "mise en scène".
• The second form of spectacle consists of performances and exhibitions of tango, which Valérie Onnis and Daniel Darius have presented in different occasions: international festivals of tango, festivals of dance and of theatre, cultural events etc.
• The cinema and the television is the third domain of their artistic activity: Valérie Onnis and Daniel Darius created the choreographies and danced the tango in different movies, as " L'Homme of sa vie" of Zabou Breitmann or " Je ne suis pas là pour être aimé" of Stéphane Brizé. They are employed in addition at projects of filming, and they realized a tango short: "La Notte". They also danced in video clips, like "Tangled up " ofCaro Emerald.
