Transmission of the Invisible


The Dance Centre is excited to announce a new addition to the Global Dance Connections contemporary dance series, with Peter Chin's superb Toronto-based company Tribal Crackling Wind. Transmission of the Invisible is Chin’s stunning multi media piece paying tribute to the Cambodians who rebuilt their country’s art in the aftermath of the Khmer Rouge regime. Performed by five dancers from Canada and Cambodia and incorporating shimmering video projections and evocative music, this haunting abstract work raises profound questions about creative energy and personal resilience. http://www.tribalcracklingwind.ca/
