1. PURSUING ALATE:
Choreographer & Performer: Madison Chadwick Duration: 10 min 2. ALICE IN WONDERLAND: Performers: Anastasia Evsigneeva & Emily McDougall Music: “Clinker” Gary James Joynes Costumes: Tess Pallister Chair Designed: Anastasia Evsigneeva Chair Engineered: Peter Boulanger Artistic Guidance: Isabelle Kirouac and Laurence Racine Description: Embark on a transcendent journey through the captivating world of 'Alice-In-Wonderland,' a mesmerizing triptych of contemporary circus and dance. Led by the enchanting performances of Anastasia and Emily, this evocative spectacle intertwines stilts and contortion to transport audiences into a psychedelic journey into an illusive absurd world with mismatched sizes and objects, where characters are blended like vague memories of the well known book “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” by Lewis Carroll. The work was created in the context of collaboration between Emily McDougall and Anastasia Evsigneeva with the help of outside eyes from coast to coast. “Wonderland”, Emily’s stilt solo was created with artistic guidance from Isabelle Kirouac (Vancouver), and “Alice”, Anastasia’s contortion solo was developed in Montreal with the help of Laurence Racine. The chair was engineered by Peter Boulanger, Artistic Director of The Underground Circus (Vancouver) in coherence with the design suggested by Anastasia. Enhancing the auditory landscape, the musical compositions of Gary James Joynes Clinker provide a sublime backdrop for both solo performances, further immersing audiences in the enchantment of 'Alice-In-Wonderland.' Meanwhile, the meticulously crafted costumes by Tess Pallister add a layer of visual splendor, completing the sensory feast that is 'Alice-In-Wonderland. Duration: 30 min ("Alice" - 13 min, "In" - 7 min, "Wonderland" - 10 min) |
3. A CHECK-POINT STORY:
Choreographer & Performer: Rania al-Harthi Duration: 5 min 4. Tēthýs: Concept/Choreography/Direction/Interpretation/Set Design: Anna Prostiou Mentor: Silvia Gertrudix Gonzalez Rehearsal Assistance & Outside-Eye: Anastasia Evsigneeva Music: Rayannah Costume Co-Design & Construction: Tess Pallister Videography: Kayla Jeanson Performer: Anna Prostiou With the generous support of the Canada Council for the Arts (canadacouncil.ca) Special “Thank you” to TOHU for the residency and Studio Angelica Bongiovanni and Studio Mariko Tanabe for the rehearsal space. Description: Tēthýs is a contemporary contortion solo that delves into the discovery of origin and destination. Drawing from an earlier dance solo “Metamers” created in 2022, this work was conceived between the shore and the sea in Mount Pelion, Greece in the summer 2022. Considering mythology and archetypes relating to human-animal hybrid existence and extending into the depths of the underwater world, Tēthýs dives deeper in the initial research in exploring the human journey through the life-death cycle. Embracing the unknown of the ocean, the only constant question is: who are we really? A journey of erosion, transformation and emersion. Duration: 6 minutes 5. FAREB-E-NAZAR: Choreography: Noor Tajik Performer: Amy Mantyka Duration: 5 min 6. GLORIA & HER GALS: Choreographer & Performer: Mooky Cornish (Clown) |

Intro Stilts & Jam Workshop with Emily McDougall
CLASS CAPACITY IS ALMOST FULL! Participants will learn the basics of walking on peg stilts. Participants will also learn to be a supportive spotter to someone learning to walk on stilts. We will explore stability through contact with each other and our surroundings. The first part of the workshop will focus on familiarizing participants with simply walking on stilts and as folks become more comfortable on their pegs, we will explore purposeful movement and straightforward dance steps. Please bring knee pads, thick soled shoes (like hiking or work boots), water and wear comfortable attire. For those who choose to stay for the “jam” portion of the workshop, we will work with some elements of contact dance and further hone our newfound skills with challenges such as pirouettes and some trickier footwork. This portion of the workshop will require participants to be able to walk on peg stilts without a spotter. |
