SUMMARY:Empty-Handed
DESCRIPTION:The Firehall Arts Centre is pleased to open its 42nd season with the world premiere of The Biting School’s Empty-Handed from Wednesday\, October 2 to Saturday\, October 5. \nEmpty-Handed is a contemporary dance piece that explores the journeys of five cosmic characters through themes of darkness\, deception\, and greed. \nAudience members are invited to leave behind something from their past\, which becomes part of the show. Through expressive movement\, choreography and storytelling\, the dancers create a world that transcends time and culture. Each character guides the viewer through an emotional arc that honours the essence of their personal revolution. \nThe vibrant colour palette\, transformational costumes\, provocative props\, and theatrical lighting reinforce the characters’ metamorphosis. Multi-layered original music composition and imaginative projection design amplify our satirical commentary on the haunting subject matter. \n“We are sitting in the madness of the human experience”\, says co-artistic director and choreographer Arash Khakpour. “Forgetting we are the guests that the daffodils invited in a long time ago. We are sitting in stillness and finding the trails. The trails that will eventually take us home.” \nFirehall Arts Centre’s Artistic Producer Donna Spencer adds\, “It is exciting to open our 2024-2025 season with this newest work from The Biting School. This piece reflects our ongoing commitment to bring up-and-coming dance artists to the stage while ensuring thematic content addresses current societal issues.” \nOctober 2 – 5 | Firehall Arts Centre | 280 E. Cordova Street \nPerformance Times: Wednesday-Saturday at 7:30pm \nTickets: From $35 at firehallartscentre.ca | 604.689.0926 \nPost-Show Talkbacks: October 3 & 4
