capsule

Capsule is a site-specific contemporary dance piece. It was commissioned in December 2018 by The Dance Centre as a pop up performance, where thirteen dancers moved along three flights of stairs.

​

The dancers in the piece act with a group mentality, a curiosity and an other wordly-ness. Like aliens dropped into a new world, the dancers explore the space with wide-eyed wonder and care. They sigh and gasp in their semi-formal attire, they cradle one another, and they walk in rhythm up and down the stairs.

​

In September 2019, the seed of Capsule was used to create a new piece as part of BC Culture Days at the CBC Plaza.

​

December 2018 iteration performed by Ellie Bishop, Aiden Cass, Brianne Chan, Jade Chong, Mavelin Grace, Sarah Hutton, Danielle Long, Kylie Miller, Nicole Pavia, Valeria Perez, Shay Saver, Alder Sherwood, Iris Stewart-Bosch.
