Dancing on the Edge Performances at Scotiabank Dance Centre

Henry Daniel's t2 is simultaneously a telematic dance performance and an installation that links Scotiabank Dance Centre with the Interurban Gallery on the Downtown Eastside. The work brings together two very different communities via technological link while allowing the audience to participate in a dialogue about space, place and identity.

t2 performances: July 11 & 12 at 8pm at Scotiabank Dance Centre.

Installation: July 8 -26, Wed-Sat 12-5pm at the Interurban Gallery, 1 East Hastings St.

the plastic orchid factory's first evening length work, endORPHIN, aims to investigate the physiological by-products of consumer culture and the influence they have on the cognitive development of self. Choreographed by James Gnam and set to an original score by Phil Thomson, endORPHIN uses movement, sound and technical design to build an abstract, dislocated work that frames the beauty, strength and stoicism inherent in contemporary dysfunction.

endORPHIN performances: July 16 & 17 at 7pm at Scotiabank Dance Centre.
