Schèmes Arbitraires

Four choreographies in a continuous narrative working through themes of struggle and beginning within conformity and control. Five Dancers as part of a larger group of dancers, and then exploring freely in the past before being moved into the conformity space, finally they are allowed periods for competition and then play both of which inevitably reinforce, and lead them back towards, the conformity space. This project is very much a collaboration between most notably Gelymar Sanchez, a montreal choreographer, Sebastien Lavoie, an Oxford experimental musician, and Sean C Dwyer, an actor and filmmaker. Each of them have had interesting, exciting and progressive pasts and promise to have bright, engaging futures. Benoit Lariviere did lighting and of course the five dancers, Chloé Ouellet- Payeur, Claire Jeannot, Maelle Beaudet, Maxine Segalowitz and Molly Shea-Hannan, performed and contributed to the choreography.
