Intimate Pairings offers every audience member the exhilarating experience of sitting in the front row! At 45 minutes, this up close and personal experience is easily enjoyed and a fresh way to discover, or rediscover, the magic of the art form.
Two distinct programmes will be offered in the round across three evenings. Whether it is your first date with dance or you are in a long-term relationship, Intimate Pairings brings audiences together with artists in an unforgettable front row only format. Purchase tickets for one or both!
Braids & Heritage opens the series. One part performance, one part participatory line dance, this work by Montreal’s Jossua Satinée and Stacey Désilier is, in their words, a translation of the “complexities and expressions [of their multi-ethnic background] through popular dances and movements created by black folks. From braids to cake walk, moonwalk, twerk, twist and square set, [it is] a showcase in celebration of our ancestors.”
Approximate Run Time: 45 minutes
