PATANA: FINAL CALL
An Exchange of choreographic voices

The Gas Station Arts Centre will be the venue for an evening of percussion, chants and highly energetic African inspired movement as well as rhythm driven choreographies by two well-known choreographers.

Kevin A. Ormsby, Artistic Director of KasheDance Toronto presents “Na’Wake Variations”. Evoking the traditions present in world cultures, “Na’Wake Variations” illicit the internal self to dance. Also under the unity of the PATANA banner, Michèle Moss, a Calgary based Choreographer, dancer and co-founder of “Decidedly Jazz Danceworks”, presents her new work “much like dreaming, this”. 

The two dance works will feature the energetic and talented NAfro Dancers and Musicians.

Hang onto your seats; this is going to be an incredible event!

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 4

Media Hub, 72 Princess St. 3rd fl.

7:30 door / 8 pm start / $15 entry

Cellist Okkyung Lee (KR) may be one of the hardest working artist in improv, working with luminaries such as John Zorn, Evan Parker, and Thurston Moore to name a few. To conclude v16 Okkyung performs in her exceptional duo project with New York-based choreographer / dancer Michelle Boulé. Together they create a spontaneously defined performance space using music, dance, and light. These elements are set into motion by the vehicle of improvisation where perception of form shifts, and a new dimension of performance opens.
