New Works collaborates with some of the most talented dancers, choreographers and musicians in Vancouver to present dance that is inspiring, unpredictable and captivating.

Our vision of dance is expansive. Dance is more than just jazz hands and tutus: it is fundamentally about our bodies in time and space, across histories and cultures. It is about both our fragility and potential as human beings.

In performance, we observe dancers’ movement in space and in relation to one another. Through this, we locate ourselves in the world and better understand how we relate to each other.

We present dance to entertain and inspire all audiences - from the young to the old, the dancer and the non-dancer, every culture and every walk of life.

Our presentations include...
