This past Tuesday, Rubberbandance Group premiered Gravity of Center in Montréal, and will continue the run through April 21st. The work features Elon Höglund, Emmanuelle Le Phan, Daniel Mayo, Anne Plamondon and choreographer Victor Quijada. Their fluid and articulate gestures draw a haunting voice from a hip hop vocabulary. The work is said to explore “the contradictory relationship between interdependence and the constant quest for freedom. Each being is at once the center of the world and in orbit around others.”Be sure to check out the April 2008 issue of The Dance Current print magazine for an article on Rubberbandance Group.

Caribana is Our Stage

Themes of becoming, shaping from and returning to are central to Caribbean performance arts. As one of these art forms, Carnival is a nuanced performance art practice rooted in the cultural memory of the lives of Caribbean peoples throughout Canada and the diaspora. But whose story is told (or not told) and in what context? The telling or omission of stories can be traced to a lack of understanding of the complexity of the Caribbean and its Carnival – a performance tradition that is more than the mass commodification, sexuality and “loud music” we often associate it with.
