Part Time Faculty members Create and Dance New Works

Part-time faculty members are also shining as performers and choreographers as we kick off the new academic year: Sara Hanley performed with James Viveiros in his new work Play: Back.

Le Devoir critic Catherine Lalonde praised the quality of their dynamic and refined interpretation: “ils se fondent ensemble et deviennent symboles humains, ou forgent un unisson énergétique et rythmique — mais pas physique — très fin, très beau lors de courses latérales... Ils sont ancrés dans une profonde écoute, et activent, on le sent des gradins, des énergies très précises.”

Caroline Laurin-Beaucage will be premiering a new group work entitled GROUND as well as REBO(U)ND. A choreography of suspension, an architectural video projection unveiling and magnifying bodies on the verge of escaping gravity. A project of choreographer Caroline Laurin-Beaucage with the companies Montréal Danse, Lorganisme and Hub Studio, the piece was made possible with the exceptional support of the Canada Council for the Arts as part of the New Chapter Initiative. It reveals the ephemeral instant when the performer floats, between momentum and falling, between liberty and unbalance, just as the body seems to defy space and time.

Projected on architectural surfaces, REBO(U)ND will be accessible to everyone, taking dance out of theaters and studios and into the streets. Video mapping plays with perceptions, thwarting notions of time, gravity, scale and space, whether for 10 seconds or long-lasting contemplations. A visual performance to be experienced and felt, REBO(U)ND delights in the sensations of abandon and liberty that dance can procure.

GROUND: OCTOBER 24 to 26, 2018 – 7 P.M. 

OCTOBER 27 – 4 P.M. AT AGORA DE LA DANSE, WILDER BLDG.

REBO(U)ND : October 19 to 20, 2018 - at Quartier des spectacles at dawn .
October 24 to 27, 2018 - at Quartier des spectacles at dawn .

GROUND + REBO(U)ND are one of the 200 exceptional projects funded through the Canada Council for the Arts’ New Chapter Initiative.
