Oh! Canada by The Choreographers
Oh! Canada (working title) is the newest experiment of “The Choreographers” (that will eventually evolve into a full evening work slated for September 2011). Starting with the declaration of Oh! Canada with its potential to both divide and unify, The Choreographers, using their unique blend of athleticism, humour and vulnerability investigate the landscape that has shaped them. In a marriage of icons images, historic figures and personal reflections inspired by what is to be Canadian, in all its beautiful complexity, they celebrate and question who they are and where they are from.
This creation is supported by Studio 303 and Dance4 in the United- Kingdom.
New Work by Deborah Dunn/Trial & Eros
Excerpts of Four Quartets
Inspired by the poems by T.S. Eliot Deborah Dunn has developed her fascination for the relationship between movement and language in this detailed work. Her choreography embraces Eliot’s play of imagery and abstractions, its lyric and architectural style weaving through the musicality of the language to meet the grace and power of the words.
