Dumb Instrument Dance

The Dance Centre presents the Global Dance Connections series

Dumb Instrument Dance
Rebel Grace

An exciting world premiere from choreographer Ziyian Kwan, Rebel Grace explores gentle transgressions as acts of resistance, empowerment and gratitude. Expect scenes of rupture, repair and sweet subversion. Rebel Grace is conjured by Kwan in collaboration with dance artists Lisa Mariko Gelley, Andrea Nann, Justin Calvadores and Rianne Švelnis.

These inimitable performers traverse the rhythm and rhyme of imagery, text and movement – in conversation with live music from multi-instrumentalist Roxanne Nesbitt and Taiko artist E. Kage.

Presented through the Artist-in-Residence program.

This performance includes mature content and nudity.
