Emerging choreographer Alysa Pires of Alysa Pyres Dance Projects is bringing her bold quality of movement to the Toronto Fringe. With an ample cast of nine dancers and an original score being composed by Adam Sakiyama, Exterminating Angel is a full-length piece of dance theatre. Created with accessibility in mind, the show features sophisticated dinner guests who come to realize they’re not able to leave.  “What happens when the parts of us we build to make it in society are the parts we must leave behind to survive?” 

Exterminating Angel runs June 29-July 9 at the Al Green Theatre, Toronto.
