2010 Exchanges (with visiting artist TBA)
December 9-12, 2009
ADAMEVE/Man-Woman
What started as a 20-minute work commissioned for the 20th anniversary of the Dancing on the Edge Festival in 2008, ADAM-EVE/Man-Woman comes to its full-length creation. In Co.ERASGA's new work, artistic director and choreographer Alvin Erasga Tolentino challenges the social and archetypal place of man and woman, identity and gender. This dance creation reveals the body as passive and aggressive, yin and yang, masculine and feminine. ADAMEVE/Man-Woman features two of Vancouver's most charismatic dancers Alison Denham and Billy Marchenski.Together they capture and interpret Tolentino's unique and eccentric choreographic style. ADAMEVE/Man-Woman poses a poetic, strange and tender journey. Tolentino's fascinating and startling physical language exudes boldness with simplicity, complexity and sublime minimalism.

Contemporary dance technique and Choreographic workshop in RECOVERING OUTER SPACE/Composition workshop for non conventional spaces.
Aims: The intention is to offer a workshop/lab that will deal with contemporary tools of theatrical and choreographical composition applied to the performance moment and its relationship with a public or non conventional space. Through the classes we will work on basic training that will lead the participants towards a context in which he will be able to develop a theoretical and practical work at the same time. The research, invention, creation and composition of movement in the space are central in this workshop proposal.
