Dusk Dances Withrow Park
Presented by: Dusk Dances
Dusk Dances returns to Withrow Park for the event the Globe and Mail calls “…a flawless evening.”
Dusk Dances returns to Toronto's Withrow Park this August!!
With a musical performance from Persian ensemble Noubâng, and a brand new host, Ryan Egan, our production at Withrow Park features:
• AKA Dance (Amy Hampton and Keiko Ninomiya), with In a Single Bound -an explosive journey into the larger-than-life world of comic book heroes.
• Dora Alexander (Luke Garwood, Alex Grant, Christophe Brochard), with For Dora - Indie music meets modern dance with humour and charm.
• I Rock With the ONE (Gateway Centre Dance Studio), with a new work where freedom, grace and power are pushed to the limit through hip hop.
• Tribal Crackling Wind (Peter Chin), with a new duet for Yves Candau
and Kate Holden inspired by the ritual theatre of South-East Asia.
• Julia Aplin, with Inner City Sirens Pt II -- a dynamic duo of synchronized swimmers go for gold in a couple of wading pools.
Dusk Dances is an outdoor dance festival that brings an array of high quality contemporary and traditional dance to public parks. As dusk descends, a theatrical host ushers the audience - which invariably includes children, dog walkers and local residents - to five eclectic dance pieces that unfold in different areas of the park. Audiences are invited on a pay-what-you-can basis to an innovative site-specific festival, which is not only an artistic event, but a social and cultural one as well.
