Dance Consortium - Ballet BC (British Columbia) - double bill

Tour synopsis, cast & creatives

UK Premiere. Canada's leading contemporary dance company presents a Double Bill of works by two internationally renowned choreographers. In PASSING, Swedish choreographer and longtime Ballet BC collaborator Johan Inger traverses a vast landscape of human emotions, taking audiences on an epic, theatrical, often touching ride. Inspired by climate catastrophe, PASSING explores relationships, from the intimate to the societal. Set to an original score by Amos Ben-Tal as well as selections from Erik Enocksson and Louis T. Hardin (aka Moondog), the sonic journey is as complex and captivating as the movement language throughout. Originally created for Nederlands Dans Theater in 2008 and reimagined for Ballet BC, Crystal Pite's Frontier will take the stage in spring 2025. Featuring 24 dancers, the visionary, enigmatic Frontier examines the unknown - the characterization of dark matter, the personification of shadows.
