L’Alliance New York’s acclaimed Crossing The Line Festival celebrates dynamic artists and diverse perspectives from around the French-speaking world, in partnership with New York City’s leading art institutions. The program comprises an array of groundbreaking, thought-provoking film, music, dance, theater, installation, and performance, many of which are world, U.S., North American, or New York premieres. The works celebrate diversity, inclusion, and hope, and represent the urgency of dialogue in this country and across oceans.

“Crossing The Line as a platform for French and francophone creation keeps our local performing arts scene diverse, curious, and cutting-edge. This year, recent newcomers in the festival come back with expanded runs and larger projects, while two artists make their US début. With roots in Greece, Guadeloupe, Rwanda, Nigeria or Vietnam, our line-up embraces migratory voices and encourages audiences to travel just as far in their imagination,” said Violaine Huisman, Crossing The Line Curator.
