Intimate and
expansive, Mal de mer
is a lexicon of dance made up of sea songs, scottish jigs and explosive
gestures. This wryly-constructed dance piece dives into the physicality
of being unsteady, off balance and slightly askew, revealing the depths
of our stormy relationship to the sea, even if sometimes, it just makes
us sick to our stomachs.
An outdoor work, Mal
de mer will take place in Crab Park, July 9-11th, 2010 as part of
Vancouver’s Dancing on the Edge
festival.
Mal de mer is made
possible with the generous support of the BC Arts Council, The Dance
Centre, Caravan Farm Theatre, The City of Vancouver, and the Firehall
Arts Centre.
