Alice Kop<\/p>\n\n
Holder of a degree in art history from Paris 1 Panth\u00e9on-Sorbonne University and in cultural organization management from HEC Montr\u00e9al, Alice Kop has forged her career as a manager in the circus arts field since 2007. While serving as executive assistant at Cirque \u00c9loize from 2007 to 2010, she volunteered with her fellow circus artists. She notably assisted Cirque Alfonse with the registration of their NPO and their first grant applications, quickly understanding the various challenges of the industry for young creators.<\/p>\n\n
As Tour Director until 2012, she discovered the challenges of distribution, on-site management, and logistics specific to circus arts. She worked with TOHU, Moment Factory, Cirque du Soleil, En Piste, the 375th anniversary of Montreal, and Cirque \u00c9loize. These rich and varied experiences allowed her to understand the industry inside out and to develop a vision for the needs to be met and the projects to be implemented to address them. <\/p>\n\n
In 2020, she co-founded La compagnie des autres with Antoine Carabinier L\u00e9pine and Nicolas Fortin, a service organization whose mission is to support creation in circus arts. As head of the company, she is resolutely committed to the diversity of proposals in circus arts. <\/p>\n\n
