SUMMARY:Momentum of Isolation
DESCRIPTION:In a lively\, moving and highly topical piece\, Shay Kuebler and his seven dancers tackle the growing phenomenon of loneliness and remind us how much we need each other.\nA brilliant jack-of-all-trades who is proficient in multiple disciplines (dance\, theatre\, martial arts\, urban dance\, new technologies)\, Shay Kuebler has been making waves on the Vancouver scene for the past 15 years with his physical and inventive dance supported by rigorous technique. It was in 2018\, when he learned that the UK had created a Ministry of Loneliness to combat a social trend as unhealthy as alcohol and cigarettes\, that Kuebler became interested in the subject\, which is even more relevant today. Exacerbated by the pandemic\, this surge of isolation and loneliness is growing. MOI – Momentum of Isolation explores this reality\, which goes hand in hand with our digital addiction\, juxtaposing solos and ensemble pieces\, one man interacting with objects and the group\, the younger generation and the next. Are we really so sure that “everything will be all right”? \nShow Length: 65 mins. No Intermission\nAll ages.\nSome Strobe lights

SUMMARY:Ballet Kelowna: taqəš and Other Works
DESCRIPTION:The taqəš and Other Works program features a stunning lineup of signature works from Ballet Kelowna’s contemporary ballet repertoire. With Cameron Fraser-Monroe’s powerful and compelling taqəš[tawKESH]\, Guillaume Côté’s mesmerizing Bolero\, and Fraser-Monroe’s satirical The Cowboy Act Suite\, this high-energy program promises to please a wide range of spectators. \nCameron Fraser-Monroe brings his classical ballet training\, knowledge of traditional Coast Salish\, Grass\, and Hoop Dance\, and experience as a contemporary dancer to taqəš [tawKESH]\, which means “to return something” in Ayajuthem\, the language belonging to the Homalco\, Klahoose\, K’omoks and Tla’amin Nations. Set to several songs by Polaris Prize-winning composer and singer Jeremy Dutcher\, taqəš follows the traditional story “Raven Returns the Water\,” centred around ῤoho (raven) and walθ (frog). \nNext\, National Ballet of Canada Choreographic Associate Guillaume Côté brings strength and fragility to a fascinating interpretation of the beloved Boléro by Maurice Ravel\, one of music’s most famous and identifiable melodies. A “riveting tour de force” (Dance Magazine)\, Bolero (2012) features breathtaking lifts and virtuosic choreography. \nRounding out the program\, audiences will be transported to the Wild West in Cameron Fraser-Monroe’s The Cowboy Act Suite\, a work that explores the dichotomy between “Cowboys and Indians” set to music by Mohawk singer/songwriter Tom Wilson. While these caricatures have been portrayed on pages\, stages\, and in films\, they are often penned from a colonial perspective. Fraser-Monroe’s intuitive take on the swashbuckling strut of the Cowboy informs this intellectual unpacking of a one-sided lens and flips the script to ask\, what happens when an Indian directs the Cowboys through their history?
