On The Ice of Labrador
By Julye HugginsTonight and tomorrow at the Conexus Arts Centre in Regina, Montréal Danse will perform Sarah Chase’s On The Ice of Labrador. The performers include Dominic Caron, Maryse Carrier, Annik Hamel, Rachel Harris, Benoît Leduc, Manon Levac, and Frédéric Marier. The relationships between this group of 7 people are slowly revealed through the circling of curious fragments of stories and words. “Identity and memory are built up, only to collapse into something more essential, something unnamable that spins at the centre of each of our souls.”
