From dance-theatre mash-ups and site-specific works to films and interactive installations, the work of queer Canadian dance artist Meagan O\u2019Shea is almost impossible to categorize, crossing disciplines and continents. Anatomalia<\/em> is an adventurous international collaboration, and a passionate collective healing of the damage done to ‘femalia’. Bringing together a cast of five exceptional dancers, original sound and design, and local participants, the work cycles between shame and curiosity, repulsion and desire, fear and trust, to release the trauma stored in the body, and reclaim joy. Theatrical, playful, and imaginative, this one-of-a-kind creation celebrates survival and recovery.<\/p>\n
