*With excerpt from the Adagio in G minor by Remo Giazotto
Rooted in Irish traditions, mysterious and full of passion, MÁM casts its spell. A wild celebration where feet pound the floor, bodies ignite, and ritual turns into jubilation.
Relentless pulsations, synchronized energies. At once dynamic and meditative, My Fierce Ignorant Step unfolds as an ecstatic soundscape, bursting with the contagious bliss of being alive.
After touring 96 cities across 17 countries, Dance Me – Music by Leonard Cohen returns to Montreal one last time. A unique opportunity to experience — or rediscover — this powerful work that has moved audiences around the world.
Marie Chouinard brings us a compendium of her solos and duets, followed by her dazzling Henri Michaux : Mouvements. A rare alchemy between ink and gesture.
Raw energy, spatial geometries, and electronic pulses. In the intimate setting of Agora de la danse, the Morin/Leroux duo delivers a physical performance in which five dancers search for the tipping point between exhilaration and transcendence.
Hailed throughout the world, Danza Contemporánea de Cuba galvanizes audiences with the rhythms of contemporary Cuban dance. In a dazzling two-part choreographic display, the contagious energy of some 20 performers ignites the stage. A grand celebration!
With SKLTR*, krump steps out of the streets and bursts onto the stage, merging two singular voices shaped by radically different paths. The result is a striking, cathartic aesthetic collision.
