Welcome to The Dance Centre’s 2012-13 season, in which we off er you a stimulating and diverse series of dance experiences that will surprise, entertain and inspire! Our Global Dance Connections contemporary

dance series sets the mood for discovery with local, national and international artists bringing some thrilling works to the stage. The ever-popular Discover Dance! noon series is a great way to embrace dance expressions rooted in BC’s many cultural traditions, and bridges two community-spirited celebrations - the annual Open House in September, and National Dance Week, culminating in International Dance Day, in April. Our season off ers opportunities to sample the familiar as well as the new and unknown, whether through attending a show or participating in an event. Meanwhile the work we do behind the scenes is equally important, as we continue to assist the development of artists through our residency and research programs, supporting the creativity of our community and nurturing the seeds of new works to come. Contributing to this is our continuing collaboration with the Canadian Music Centre, fostering dialogue between dancemakers and composers, and the international choreographic project Triptych which moves into its third year and connects our community with those of Montreal and Italy.

Our dreams continue to be ambitious for our community of multi-talented artists as we work to support dance in BC, build connections globally and connect audiences to the art of dance locally. A heartfelt thank you to all our partners, our donors (spearheaded by the dedicated Choreographer’s Circle) and our many volunteers, and to you our audience, for your unfl agging support for excellence, innovation and creativity. Without your help all of this would be so much harder to achieve. I look forward to seeing you in the season ahead.

Mirna Zagar, Executive DirectorThe Dance Centre

Two evenings of contemporary dance from Germany presented with Transatlantique Montreal/Festival Quartiers Danses

fabien prioville dance company (Dusseldorf)Experiment on Chatting BodiesFriday September 21, 8pm

September 21

A veteran of La La La Human Steps and the legendary Pina Bausch’s Tanztheater Wuppertal, French-born Fabien Prioville creates work that bursts with theatricality and striking images. In his new duet (performed with Pascal Merighi, also ex-Tanztheater Wuppertal) Prioville uses Facebook and Skype to invite people to share their music, movement, opinions, even views of their homes, to create a digitally extended live performance, in a witty examination of the impact of new technology on human communication.www.fabienprioville.comDuration: 55 minutes

Morgan Nardi Choreography (Dusseldorf)A ONE M(ORG)AN SHOWSaturday September 22, 8pm

September 22

Where does the truth end and the lie begin? Award-winning choreographer Morgan Nardi’s subversive take on the one-man show introduces us to a charming, if not entirely reliable, entertainer who spins fact and fi ction to keep us asking who he really is, and why it matters. In an exuberant virtuoso performance fusing dance, song, text and comedy, Nardi questions the self-presentation and authenticity of the artist and the audience, defends the right to lie and shatters the obligation to tell the truth.www.morgan-nardi.comDuration: 70 minutes

These artists are presented through an ongoing exchange partnership between Transatlantique Montreal/Festival Quartiers Danses and The Dance Centre, which since 2008 has facilitated the presentation of BC-based artists in Montreal, and brought artists from the Festival to perform in Vancouver.www.transatlantiquemontreal.com

Restless Productions (Vancouver) The Moment of Forgetting PremiereThursday–Saturday October 4–6, 8pm

October 5

The Moment of Forgetting explores in movement, sound and performance the daily human experience of being abandoned by our knowledge, and the shock of fi nding an absence where we expected a presence. How do we forget, and what does it mean when we do? Choreographed by Claire French for fi ve dancers, with an original score composed by James Maxwell and played live by four musicians, this stimulating new work also features set design by the innovative duo Hadley + Maxwell.www.restlessproductions.comDuration: approx 60 minutes

Shay Kuebler (Vancouver) KaroshiPremiereThursday-Saturday December 6–8, 8pm

December 7

Shay Kuebler presents a new full-length version of his 2011 hit Karoshi (meaning ‘death from overwork’ in Japanese), which is inspired by the clash between extreme societal pressure and personal needs, as exemplifi ed in Japan’s salaryman culture. Kuebler draws on martial arts, hip hop and contemporary dance to create physically explosive, high energy choreography for an outstanding all-male ensemble, incorporating live taiko drumming and video to create a thrilling and visceral theatrical experience. www.shaykuebler.tumblr.comDuration: 60 minutes This show includes some strobe lighting.

Three programs presented with the PuSh International Performing Arts Festival

Jérôme Bel (Paris)Cédric AndrieuxFriday-Sunday January 18-20, 8pm

January 19

The slyly brilliant work of Jérôme Bel returns to Vancouver with a beautifully spare and poetic evening of dance and autobiographical storytelling, created in collaboration with, and performed by, French dancer Cédric Andrieux. Refl ecting on a rich career which included eight rigorous years with Merce Cunningham Dance Company, Andrieux gives a rare, moving and humorous insider’s view into a dancer’s life, performing extracts of work by major choreographers including Cunningham and Trisha Brown. www.jeromebel.fr Duration: 80 minutes

Hiroaki Umeda/S20 (Tokyo)Haptic + Holistic StrataFriday-Sunday January 25-27, 8pm

January 26

Hiroaki Umeda is one of Japan’s most exciting artists, bringing together light, sound and movement with astonishing force and style. Haptic plays with the sensation of colour, drenching the stage in layers of red, blue and purple, framing Umeda’s constantly moving body. In Holistic Strata he is bathed in pinpoints of light, swaying with and against a torrential fl ow of racing light particles. www.hiroakiumeda.com www.quaternaire.orgDuration: approx 65 minutes including intermission. This performance includes strobe lighting. Supported by the EU Japan Fest.

Pieter Ampe + Guilherme Garrido/CAMPO (Ghent) Still Standing YouTuesday-Wednesday January 29-30 + Friday-Saturday February 1-2, 8pm

January 30

The incendiary Belgian-Portuguese duo Pieter Ampe and Guilherme Garrido tour internationally to wild acclaim. Still Standing You tests the limits of friendship, rivalry and their own bodies in a rough-and-tumble montage of dance, gymnastics and wrestling. Daring, discomfi ting and darkly hilarious, this is an astounding take on masculinity, aggression and tenderness.www.campo.nu Duration: 60 minutes This performance includes male nudity.Tour supported by the Canada Council for the Arts

Marta Marta Productions (Vancouver) The Ligeti ProjectPremiereThursday-Saturday April 18-20, 8pm

April 19

The music of the great Hungarian composer György Ligeti provides the starting point for this exciting new collaboration between contemporary choreographer Martha Carter and the innovative Microcosmos String Quartet. A cast of accomplished dancers and musicians seeks to create a dialogue of movement, sound and rhythm that vibrates with contrasts, and expresses the raw energy and deep emotion of Ligeti’s music, which will be played live. www.martamartaproductions.com www.newmusic.orgDuration: approx 60 minutes

Chartier Danse (Toronto/Montreal)StriaThursday-Saturday April 25-27, 8pm

April 26

Stria is the latest solo work by the award-winning and versatile choreographer/performer Marie-Josée Chartier, and is inspired by the beautiful and unpredictable terrain of the Badlands. The work uses an exquisite blend of movement, music, text and voice to delve into a mosaic of colourful memories, and touches on themes of nature, love and loss. Anchored by a luminous central performance by Chartier, Stria is a thoughtful, humorous and unconventional self-portrait.www.chartierdanse.comDuration: 60 minutes
