WHAT WE ARE SAYING
What is the definition of dance? With each new work, Toronto choreographer Ame Henderson keeps redefining the art form. -Paula Citron, The Globe and Mail
In an open space filled with chairs, the performers speak and move in a unison where every decision is a group decision but no one knows whats going to happen next. Is being together possible? They dont have an entirely satisfactory answer. Nonetheless, they insist on this question as both the figure and the ground of their pursuit to express how things are, and how they want things to be different. Navigating the potential of absolute failure, what we are saying illuminates the possibility of leaderless togetherness.
What can we say about the present moment the moment were in now, together?
What can we say about our future and how do we say it together?
Using language and movement to explore new perspectives of our world and each other, an assembly of performers responds to uncertainty, potential danger, and possibility in an open performance space.
PERFORMERS: Ishan Davé, Katie Ewald, Mairéad Filgate, Sherri Hay, Ame Henderson, Brendan Jensen, Evan Webber
PUBLIC RECORDINGS
Public Recordings keeps its doors open. Theory and practice, talking and making, doing and reflecting are interwoven threads of the process of making.
Concurrent with its performance projects, Public Recordings provides and facilitates exchange opportunities year-round, in Canada and abroad. These workshops aim to produce artistic research, energize the performance community and widen the platform on which practitioners can share their experience and vision.
Since 2003, Public Recordings dance experiments have proposed choreography as the tension between the established and the emergent while their performances have made the remarkable case that dance changes how we imagine the possible. A collaborative operation that conjoins artistic research, performance creation, learning and publication, Public Recordings makes ground-breaking projects that activate the potentials of shared space. Works including/Dance/Songs/, 300 TAPES, relay, what we are saying and The Most Together Weve Even Beenhave been presented in Belgium, Croatia, France, Italy, The Netherlands, the UK, Slovenia and across Canada.
