Three powerful performers take a chilled-out club dance and reinvent it through constant movement\, subtly shifting and transforming\, and drawing on deep reserves of strength\, endurance and concentration. From a meticulous build-up to its fracturing\, the performance goes right to the core of the body and its response to change\, and asks: how do we keep going? \nPost-show artist talkback March 15 \nPROGRAM URL:https://thedancecentre.ca/event/arno-schuitemaker/ LOCATION:The Dance Centre\, 677 Davie Street\, Vancouver\, British Columbia\, V6B 2G6\, Canada CATEGORIES:Performance ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://thedancecentre.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Arno-Schuitemaker-If-You-Could-See-Me-Now-photo-Piotr-Jaruga-sq.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20240315T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20240315T220000 DTSTAMP:20260604T073003 CREATED:20240229T195429Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240229T195429Z UID:17669-1710531000-1710540000@thedancecentre.ca SUMMARY:Arts Umbrella DESCRIPTION:Arts Umbrella Dance Company\, Arts Umbrella’s pre-professional repertory company comprised of dancers from the Professional and Post-Secondary Programs\, returns to the Vancouver Playhouse this March for Midseason – two exhilarating performances of world-class repertoire and brand-new works created for AUDC. \nThe Company will perform thrilling and innovative works by leading Canadian and International choreographers\, including Sidney Chuckas\, James Kudelka\, Fernando Magadan\, Emily Molnar\, Christoph von Riedemann\, and Lukas Timulak. \nMidseason showcases the captivating progress of the dancers as they work towards their final performances in May for Season Finale.

Accompanied by the sculptural sounds of American experimental band Son Lux\, X (Dix) charts a course into the unknown\, as well as the challenges of finding your way home again. \nHailed as “one of the finest male dancers in the world” by The London Times\, Guillaume Côté brings a depth of knowledge and interpretation to the creation of his own work creating choreography of singular and staggering beauty. Côté Danse’s mythic new work X (Dix) makes remarkable use of the foundational materials of storytelling\, employing archetypal ideas\, from the hero’s journey to the role of home\, to create new narratives of leaving and return.

Collaborators Kaia Shukin (choreography)\, Celeste English (scenography/lighting) and Isak Enquist (sound) will show and discuss this current iteration of their work. \nIn 2020 the research for Portals began with the notion that travel through space and time was possible within our own bodies.\nVeins as wormholes\, galaxies in viscera\, memories and sensation containing a multiverse.\nThe arrival\, assembly\, disintegration and diffusion of our brief state of being.\nA way through grief\, an act of wonder\, a journey through the multiplicity of self.\nFinding you again\, scattered through the cosmos. \nArtist talkback March 27 URL:https://thedancecentre.ca/event/portals-2024/ LOCATION:The Dance Centre\, 677 Davie Street\, Vancouver\, British Columbia\, V6B 2G6\, Canada CATEGORIES:Event,Studio Showing ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://thedancecentre.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/Portals-photo-Kaia-Shukin-2-1.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20240328T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20240328T130000 DTSTAMP:20260604T073003 CREATED:20230718T185419Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260111T223557Z UID:16086-1711627200-1711630800@thedancecentre.ca SUMMARY:Aché Brasil DESCRIPTION:A performance by Aché Brasil is an explosion of colour\, energy and music that embodies the exuberant culture and rhythms of Brazil.
