The Friday RoundUp
Brrrh – cold getting you down? Well what better way to come in from the cold but to see some mind blowing, soul searching dance!
It’s here – Friday again, which means only one more day for the big event :
La La La Human Steps Saturday and Sunday 21 and 22nd! I am sure you have your tickets by now, but if not there are still some available, with better availability for Sunday. This is Vancouver dance history in the making – be a part of it!
And in the not so distant future: Feb 1-3, as part of the PuShFestival, Dances for a Small Stage is series of original danceworks designed for a 10-by-13-foot stage! Works by Serge Bennathan, Cori Caulfield, Josh Beamish amongst others. Always fun times, sit back and relax with a beer and your friends at the Grandview Legion on the Drive. Tix $20 at the door, cash only. 19+ (no kids, alas.)
Also part of the PuSh Festival, Andrea Božić’ (Croatian choreographer based in Amsterdam) presents her work After Trio A. The piece pays homage to American choreographer Yvonne Rainer’s 1966 Trio A, a pioneering postmodern dance that was groundbreaking in its defiance of standard conventions of dance and perceptions of the body. As part of Božić’ work two dancers must learn a portion of the original Trio A live in front of the audience, guided only by a video recording . Feb 2-4 at the Dance Centre.
