The Golden Mean (Live)

-World Premeire

Presented by DanceHouse
with Vancouver 2010 Cultural Olympiad

March 12 & 13, 2010  | 8pm performances
Vancouver Playhouse 

Hamilton at Dunsmuir

 

The reigning queen of contemporary dance in Canada, Marie Chouinard, returns with the world premiere of a newly commissioned work. This latest group piece is full of subtle shades of meaning; a study of the delicate ebb and flow of the agitations of the body.

With this new commission, Chouinard extends the possibilities of a traditional proscenium theatre and explodes the conventions of ballet and large-scale contemporary dance. 

 

The Golden Mean (Live) will feature live projections mirroring the fluctuations in the music and bodies, developed in collaboration with media artist Luc Courchesne. For the first time, Chouinard will create a vocal score, a gentle opera, to accompany the dance.
