In this DanceLab, Shot of Scotch Vancouver is experimenting with innovative ways to convey narrative and theme through Scottish Highland dance. The company is collaborating with musicians and an actor to research ways to deepen the narrative of what will become its first full-length work, which focuses on the Scottish legends that are attached to traditional Highland dancing, and the historical events of the Jacobite Rebellion and the Battle of Culloden in the 18th century. How and why are these stories told in modern Highland dance?<\/p>\n
In this online sharing, the artists will show some recorded footage of their research, and lead a discussion and Q&A about the project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
