SUMMARY:The Dance Centre presents Daina Ashbee: We learned a lot at our own funeral
DESCRIPTION:The Dance Centre presents the internationally acclaimed BC choreographer Daina Ashbee’s compelling new solo We learned a lot at our own funeral\, which examines the notion of death. \nPerformed by the Italian dancer Imara Bosco\, the choreography evokes a battle with the self: she challenges gravity\, resists the ground\, and overcomes precarious balances. Using movement\, breath and voice\, the work draws the audience – seated on all four sides of the stage – into a potent sense of ritual\, echoing the communal experience of a funeral rite. The atmospheric score incorporates sounds from nature and haunting vocalizations. \nWe learned a lot at our own funeral is a profound meditation on the strength and fragility of the body.
