The Evening Will Unfold as Follows ...
ACT I: An immersion into the heart of creation
You'll experience an exclusive, intimate moment as you witness an exclusive excerpt from Joie de vivre , our new choreographic work by Jo Strømgren; a fragile, powerful moment in which the dancers and the entire artistic team reveal themselves without artifice, offering dance in its purest state, under construction before your very eyes.
A rare and powerful moment - You'll witness a dance in full construction, without set or artifice, where every movement is still being shaped.
Privileged access - See the dancers, artistic director and choreographer in the midst of the creative process, discover their work, their adjustments and their physical and emotional commitment.
A meaningful commitment - Your presence that evening goes far beyond a performance: you become a player in the development and innovation of Ballets Jazz Montréal.
“Working with Jo Strømgren is a privilege of rare intensity for me as Artistic Director, for the team, for you as spectators and patrons, and for the entire dance community. Her perspectives, her vision of movement, her singular humor and her profound humanity transcend dance to make it a universal language, vibrant with emotion and contrast. Every moment of this collaboration is a celebration of the body in motion, of the unexpected, of the burst of life that emerges where we least expect it. Seeing our dancers appropriate his universe with such finesse and mastery is a source of immense pride. This collaboration will result in an unforgettable work, bursting with energy and truth."
— Alexandra Damiani, Artistic Director, Ballets Jazz Montréal
