50Th Anniversary Season 50TH 50 ANNIVERSARY SEASON 2017 / 2018 In 1968, three forward-thinking dance artists– Patricia Beatty, WELCOME TO TDT'S David Earle and Peter Randazzo– came together to establish a company and school that changed the face of Canadian dance. By encouraging innovation and collaboration, and acquiring a FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY permanent home for the two organizations, they planted seeds for the creation of a vast repertoire of Canadian works –almost SEASON 500 at last count– and the development of generations of dancers and choreographers. TDT continues to be an incubator for the development of dance artists, from emerging to senior, as shown by this year's Glass Fields program at the Fleck Dance Theatre, by our second Emerging Voices Project, and by our special co-presentation with Toronto Heritage Dance. We have toured across Canada since our inception and performed in many of the great cities of the world including New York, London, Beijing, Tokyo, Seoul, Mumbai, Berlin and Mexico City. In this anniversary year, we travel to three cities in Colombia and perform in eleven Canadian cities coast to coast. Fifty years later, Toronto is a radically different city than it was in 1968. The company reflects the city back to itself by celebrating the power of community, the importance of critical engagement and the many ways that live performance can change our dialogue with the world. We have much to celebrate! None of it would be possible, this year or in the past, without the support of legions of donors, funders, volunteers, staff members and artists, and the love and attention of the audience.

Set to Ann Southam's exuberant piano music, Glass Houses was described by the New York Times as "downright startling - spewing forth a kinetic brilliance in the form of energy and continuum." TDT's fiftieth anniversary program kicks off with a performance of the original work followed by premieres by Amanda Acorn, Jasmyn Fyffe, Hanna Kiel, Tedd Robinson and Christopher House that refract its essence GLASS through a fascinating variety of contemporary lenses. Glass Fields is produced with the assistance of Ann H. Atkinson FIELDS and is part of TDT’s Reimagining Repertoire Project. (1983). Photo by Cylla von Tiedemann.

  • Arbez Drama Fringe 2017 Company Bios
    Arbez Drama Projects in association with The Toronto Fringe Festival 2017 THE OLD WOLF and the SACRED TROUT by Donald Molnar COMPANY HISTORY & BIOS Arbez Drama Projects Arbez Drama Projects is a not-for-profit theatre company based in Toronto. Our mandate is to pursue theatre projects that we feel passionate about. We create, develop, and produce new Canadian plays. The creation of our company is intimately connected to Sara's Cave by Donald Molnar, which was accepted into the City of Brampton’s 2nd Annual NewWorks Playwright Festival (2005). In order to produce the play, Donald Molnar, John Sader, and Alicia Payne created Arbez Drama Projects. Arbez Drama Projects now has several plays at various stages of development and has produced readings and workshop presentations at theatre festivals as well as social justice and academic conferences including: Readers’ Theatre of New Works at the National Black Theatre Festival, Winston Salem, North Carolina (2013 and 2015); 33rd Annual Teaching Public Administration Conference, Grand Rapids, Michigan (2010); Innocence Network Conference, at the South Texas College of Law, Houston, Texas (2009); and the rock.paper.sistahaz 7 festival, Toronto (2008). Anna Braumberger – Wolf Masks Anna Braumberger delights in the whimsical and bizzare which suits her very well in her work in the Vancouver Film industry set decoration department (IATSE Local 891). Having been professionally tasked in the last two years with everything from fabricating 80's neon art to occult decorated cow skulls for use in TV shows she still finds time for the occasional personal project. Starting in 2003 Anna began in a community Shakespeare group called "The Pressgang Theater Company" which worked every year on a shoestring budget to produce a play under the funding of the Society for Creative Anachronism.

  • Heartsurge (100)
    § 56 BPM monitor Artists' Play dance theatre II (100) aR HeartSurge (100) What happens when, in the beat of a heart, the inner rhythms that drive us change? FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: May 19, 2009 is back at it… What happens when, in the beat of a heart, the inner rhythms that drive us change? A joyful Viennese waltz is interrupted by a heart murmur. Three dancers morph into a sinewy pulsating heart, magnifying the physical representation of heart surgery. Through powerful elevated duets, heartfelt struggle becomes a mutual push to recovery. Based on a true story, Alan Page shared his experience of emotions, physical being and factual, medical information associated with his own heart surgery. The first incarnation of HeartSurge was shown at fFida 2006 and now incorporates dance theatre, while intertwining social waltz with contemporary dance. Elizabeth Dawn Snell’s choreography brings passion and empathy to the piece, and as her second year at the Fringe, she brings a fresh, new experience to the stage. Fringe 2008, the Toronto Star’s Susan Walker said, “Snell can dance,” and she can—catch her in a short preview of Love & Life alongside the performance of HeartSurge. “Through the metaphor of lyrical, emotional movement… the piece made a strong impact…” —Paula Citron, The Globe and Mail ~Artists’ Play Dance Theatre presents HeartSurge at the 2009 Toronto Fringe~ Choreography by: Elizabeth Dawn Snell Original Music by: Jason Vanstone and Al Bee Dancers/Collaborators: Tanya Crowder, Tyler Evan Webb, Sarah McQueston, Jason Vanstone, and Elizabeth Dawn Snell LOCATION: The George Ignatieff Theatre, 15 Devonshire Place (East of St.
