In 2016, she worked at the Opéra National de Paris on Eliogabalo (Francesco Cavalli) with director Thomas Jolly and under the musical direction of Leonardo Garcia Alarcon. At the same time, Maud Le Pladec has been an associate artist at La Briqueterie – CDCN in the Val de Marne and keeps performing in the pieces of Boris Charmatz (Levée des conflits, Enfant, Manger, 10000 gestes, Infini).

Since January 2017, she succeeded Josef Nadj and directs the Centre chorégraphique national d’Orleans. She created Moto-Cross (The Subsistances / Biennale Val de Marne), Je n’ai jamais eu envie de disparaître with the author Pierre Ducrozet as part of Concordan(s)e and Borderline in collaboration with the director Guy Cassiers.
