Gibney Company

Tue Apr 7 - Sun Apr 12

Gibney Company, applauded for its astonishingly expressive artists and choreographic collaborations that push the boundaries of contemporary dance, marks five years of performances exhibiting its dancers’ brilliant physicality and technical prowess. This year’s compelling program includes the world premiere of On Contemplation of Wailing, created by Jawole Willa Jo Zollar, the visionary founder of Urban Bush Women; and Lucinda Childs’ Canto Ostinato, a much-heralded 2015 work set to a spellbinding score by Simeon ten Holt that builds hypnotic patterns as it unfolds in a luminous play of light. Audiences will also be treated to Ballet BC Artistic Director Medhi Walerski’s Silent Tides, a 2020 piece using radiant design and sensuous partnering to reflect on love, mortality, and renewal.
