At the very moment when she is touring with her largest group piece, In Comune, which brings together 12 dancers, Ambra Senatore essentially returns to her roots and ventures once again into creating a solo piece. Not conceived as introspection or a need to retreat into oneself, but as a way to differently question, from her feelings, the relationship to others – and more fundamentally, our identity, what shapes and constitutes us. Between performance, participatory spectacle, and choreographic writing, the solo brings together, in a single gesture, people met along the way, memories, various and unusual objects... and a touch of Italy as well.

In Italy, she trained with artists such as Roberto Castello and Rafaella Giordano, with whom she quickly began collaborating. As a performer, she also worked with Jean-Claude Gallotta, Giorgio Rossi, Georges Lavaudant, and Antonio Tagliarini. In the late 1990s, she created pieces in collaboration with other authors, then completed a PhD in contemporary dance (2004) before teaching dance history in Milan.

From 2004 to 2009, she focused her choreographic research on solos that she performed herself. EDA-solo, Merce, Informazioni Utili, Altro piccolo progetto domestico, Maglie, avant de passer à des pièces de groupe : Passo (2010) en version duo puis quintet, A Posto (2011), trio féminin et John (2012). With her company EDA, which she founded in 2012 in Besançon, she choreographed her first piece for young audiences based on a text by Fabrice Melquiot. Nos amours bêtes (2013), which was followed in 2016 by Quante Storie, a project from the "Au pied de la lettre" program, which she created as a mirrored composition with Loïc Touzé.

In 2014, she presented at the Lyon Biennale. Aringa Rossa, a piece for nine dancers featuring lifts, duets, and reassembled tableaux. Afterward, Pièces (2016), she created at the 2017 Avignon Festival Scena madre*, a performance for seven dancers in which she plays with cinematic codes.

When she took over the direction of the CCN of Nantes in January 2016, Ambra Senatore brought with her a dance style deeply connected to humanity, a way of engaging with people and places. In the Nantes area, she offered site-specific creations in schools (Petits pas and Pas au tableau) or museums, organizes events – Primavera, Festival Trajectoires –, choreographs the dance interludes of the opera. Cendrillon de Jules Massenet et se lance dans une Conversation (2019) with personalities and locals, to understand how dance can be integrated into the major contemporary societal debates.

In 2018, she co-wrote with dancer Marc Lacourt, Giro di pista, a participatory dance for children and families, followed by the duo, Il nous faudrait un secrétaire, scheduled for the fall of 2020. Ambra Senatore also created, in the same year, Partita, a series of duets for a dancer and a live musician, and invites the original team from her piece. Passo (2010) à s’investir dans Col tempo, a quartet where each individual, including the audience, is invited to make choices. In 2022, she continued her work on the creation of the short film. La Lingua al Gatto with photographer, visual artist, and videographer Bastien Capela, and recently created at the 2023 Trajectoires Festival, In Comune, a piece for 12 performers that questions living together.
