Since December of last year, Jaquet Droz has been the presenting partner of the contemporary Béjart ballet company in Lausanne. On the 18th of June, the company performed some of very famous pieces choreographed by Maurice Béjart, including Ravel's mythical Bolero, in the gardens of Versailles. 

And for the anecdote, 240 years ago, almost on the very same day, Pierre Jaquet Droz was in Versailles to present his fabulous automatas to the royal court. Want to know more on this partnership between Jaquet Droz and the Béjart Ballet Lausanne, press here.
