RIVERDANCE Live @ The Sony Centre for the Performing Arts, Toronto, ON - Thurs Apr 19th - Sat Apr 21st!
Sony Centre For The Performing Arts presents
RIVERDANCE
Legendary Show Says Goodbye To Toronto
April 19-21, 2012
RIVERDANCE,
the internationally acclaimed celebration of Irish music, song and
dance, comes to the Sony Centre For The Performing Arts for the last
time, for four performances only, April 19-21, 2012. This is the last
chance to see RIVERDANCE in Toronto, as the North American tour will close forever in June 2012.
For the past 16 years RIVERDANCE
has enthralled over 22 million audience members with the innovative and
exciting blend of dance, music and song. Drawing on Irish traditions,
the combined talents of 28 performers propel Irish dancing and music
into the present day capturing the imagination of audiences across all ages and cultures.
RIVERDANCE has performed in Toronto on five separate occasions since it’s world premiere in 1995. The Sony Centre For The Performing Arts became the Canadian home away from home for RIVERDANCE as they have performed at the Centre four times, as the O’Keefe Centre and Hummingbird Centre. This marks a bittersweet stop on the tour as RIVERDANCE says goodbye to Toronto audiences on the prestigious stage of the Sony Centre For The Performing Arts.

The Adaptation Project @ The Dancenakers Centre for Creation, Toronto, ON - Wed Apr 18th - Sun Apr 29th!
Dancemakers presents
THE ADAPTATION PROJECT
Confronting our past, with love
A re-imagined performance by Michael Trent
based on Mitchell Rose's Following Station Identification (1974)
For the Dancemakers' 2012 Spring Home Season, Artistic Director and Resident Choreographer Michael Trent
re-imagines a dance from the Company's 100-plus repertoire, a body of
work amassed over its 38-year history and created by noted Canadian and
international artists.
Trent will go back to almost the very beginning, coming to new terms with Mitchell Rose's Following Station Identification - working from historical rehearsal videos and the recollections from early Dancemakers performers of the work and pioneers of independent dance in Toronto including Carol Anderson, Peggy Baker, Pat Fraser and Pat Miner, as well as Skype conversations with Rose.
Wanting something other than a traditional remount where original intention, choreography and design are re-created as faithfully as possible, Trent and the company, including composer Christopher Willes and musician Thom Gill, will re-imagine Rose's 1974 Following Station Identification, a 'satirical dance on middle-American values', for today's Dancemakers.
"We all face looking back at our past and wondering what to make of it. We face it as individuals, as families, as communities, and, not surprisingly, as dance companies," explains Trent. "I am curious about this dance in particular because, although my work broadly addresses the way we are in the world, it has never done so through the lens of satire. I am also curious about confronting the status quo and its relationship to social values from the 'middle'."
Former choreographer and performance artist, Ohio- based Mitchell Rose is now an award-winning comedic short filmmaker. Over the course of his dance career, 1973-1991, he created 75 works, set pieces on 20 repertory and university dance companies, was awarded five Fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts and was referred to as the "dance world's Woody Allen."
