Chaos is playing on the edge. Hearts at the bottom of a cage. Like a reversed compass rose in all cardinal directions, some things are clear while most are blurred. Is it too fast? The Wind is over, the grass is between my fingers and my heart drops within her.” (an amalgamation of the writings of the 1st year dancers) This work explores society’s increasingly obsessive attitude towards rapid and efficient communication, juggling one’s ability to see clear moments in time that mean the most. I dedicate this work to these remarkably gifted and courageous dancers who captured my heart and made me stand still for at least a moment. – DT PLEASE NOTE: • Latecomers will not be admitted to the theatre until there is a break in the performance. • The use of cameras, video cameras, or camera phones is strictly prohibited. • Please turn your cell phones off or to silent mode.

Alexander Harris-Mungo, Léa Lavoie-Gauthier, Devon Lewis, Natalia Lisina, Colby McGovern, Miguel Perreault, Marco Placencio, Justin Poleon, Danah Rosales, Georgia Skinner, Darren Strong, Melissa Watt, Stuart Wright In the English language, the words “under” and “stand” were chosen to represent the concept of understanding, a very vertical perception. In French, “comprendre” has the root “com” meaning “with” and the word “prendre”, to take, hence to take with oneself, a rather horizontal action. Are there as many differences in the concept of understanding as there are languages? Beyond languages, how different are the wireframes of human minds as they attempt to stand under a thought or take it with oneself ? – MB Barnyard (1993) Choreography Christopher House Rehearsal Direction Rosemary James Rehearsal Assistance Patricia Miner Music Jimmy Dorsey, Babe Wagner, and Frankie Yankovic Lighting Design Simon Rossiter, after Roelof Peter Snippe Costume Design Jennifer Dallas, after Denis Joffre Additional Costume Construction Susan Kendal Dancers Robyn Breen, Nicole Carr, Claudine Dubé, Joey Eddy, Mateo Galindo Torres, Christian Giraldo, Jessica Hall, Greg Harris, Amelia Iverson, Marie Lambin-Gagnon, Britanny LaRusic, Damian Norman, Turner Norman, Kassi Scott, Ann Trépanier, Mathieu Trépanier, Kathia Wittenborn, Michelle Zimmerman Barnyard was originally performed by Toronto Dance Theatre in 1993 with a cast of dance luminaries that included Kate Alton, Bill Coleman, Susanna Hood, Laurence Lemieux, Michael Sean Marye, Coralee McLaren, and Michael Trent. – CH PRODUCTION TEAM Production/Stage Manager Cheryl Lalonde Assistant Stage Manager Tara Mohan Wardrobe Assisstant Natalia Lisina FACILITIES STAFF Facilities Manager Karen O’Brien Techinical Director A.J.

  • 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.

My research focuses on how dance information, comprised of both archives and repertoires, is stewarded in Vancouver, and how such practices of stewardship can be transformed in order to respect PNAAM. To demonstrate how PNAAM might serve to inspire respectful information stewardship in Vancouver, I present two case studies that describe the transformative process I undertook with Vancouver-based collecting institutions.
