Les Gens du Quai (in English People of the Quay) is a Contemporary dance company founded in 1993 in Montpellier, France.
It is directed by its co-founders, Anne Lopez (choreographer, dancer) and François Lopez (composer, performer), who are brother and sister.
Besides their choreographic creations, performances and concerts, the Gens du Quai offer workshops in schools, medico-educational or psychiatric institutions.
Anne Lopez, who received in 2004 the prize of the new choreographic talent of the Société des Auteurs et Compositeurs Dramatiques for her piece De l'avant invariablement, is also a teacher and a lecturer.
