Vancouver International Dance Festival: Debordements (flamenco + punk)

Details

Montreal La Otra Orilla World Premiere DEBORDEMENTS, is a choreographic and sound-based work at the crossroads of flamenco language and punk philosophy. Created by Myriam Allard and Hedi Graja in collaboration with the composer and performer Jonathan Parant on electric guitar and on stage, this new work sees the trio deliver a striking performance in which dance, music, space, light and actions are revisited by multiples derivatives. An urban production, it’s rooted in a cry, a common desire to express a never-say-die vision of life. Punk music and flamenco blend with tonal and spatial research sometimes illuminating, sometimes obscuring the alterations of voice and body magnified with an architecture of microphones and artificial stands manipulated in real time. Interactive micro-scenes with sound sensors amplify and transform the dance steps. And with each step, the ground becomes a more visible space. With each sound, the body becomes more tangible. Location: KW Production Studio, #10 – 111 Hastings St W, Vancouver, BC V6B 1H4 $20 Adult and $15 Student/Senior/Arts Worker (or pay what you can at the door for standby tickets)

Hi Aleesa, I just found out that on-line tickets are sold out. Do you know if they would allocate some tickets for the standby tickets at the door? Peter

Hi Aleesa, I just found out tickets are sold out. It's too far for standby. Regrettably, I need to cancel. So sorry to miss this. Have fun!

Hi Peter, I believe they will have some standby tickets, according to the the info on the website, but I don't know for sure.

Hey Joanne, I'm sorry to hear that! I find I never know when an event will sell out vs. have plenty of tickets available. Sorry you won't be able to join us.

Thanks, Aleesa. I don't seem to be able to find that on the site. I'll check on it again tomorrow. Otherwise, may bow out on this then. Darn! Flamenco's one of my favorites. And Flamenco with Punk! That would've been my first! Too bad. Lesson on not to procrastinate!:(

What an awesome evening! 😎 Traditional flamenco meets eighties punk revival with a side of post-punk industrial band theatrics and power tool mayhem. I loved it! 😍 Thank you Aleesa for spotting this event and organizing this evening! So nice meeting your friends too! And Susan great to see you again!
