Bravi to Augusto Bitter on their upcoming premiere of Reina, their Solo Dance Lab work brought to fruition!!! I can't wait to see how Reina has evolved❣️

Please join us in congratulating our wonderful Artistic Director Denise Fujiwara who is this year’s recipient of the .council Walter Carson Award for Excellence in the Performing Arts! 🏆

On receiving this honour, Denise shared:
“The call from the Canada Council gave me great joy and hope in the midst of a calamitous year. My 99-year-old mother, who had been my first dance teacher, had a series of medical emergencies and had moved into palliative care. When I whispered into her ear that I had won the Walter Carson Prize and thanked her for her part in my receiving it, she lifted my hand and gently danced it in the air at the news. Days later, she passed away peacefully.”

Denise is amazed and grateful. Many, many thanks to all who have supported her creative work over the days and decades.

Congratulations, Denise! 🌟

Company dance Sylvie Bouchard shares her reflections from Solo Dance Lab...

“This lab brought in a curiosity and a freedom that I never expected. I experienced a state of ‘no judgement’, which was incredibly liberating. It has changed me as an artist and has deeply inspired me.” - Sylvie Bouchard,

Invest in your choreographic practice and join us for the five weeks session of Solo Dance Lab, running Sunday Feb 2-Mar 2, 2025. Each week we’ll meet 12-4pm with a cohort of 5 choreographers to engage in the art of the solo, the most challenging of choreographic forms.
