I was first introduced to the work of the TriPOD Dance Collective through Treena Stubel, an award winning Victoria based choreographer, dancer, vocalist and actor.
Since 2009, the Collective, a group of local musicians and choreographers committed to producing new and collaborative work, has been presenting BOUNCE Dance Cabaret at the Victoria Event Centre.
Join TriPOD for a fundraiser "In Song and Dance", Thursday December 2nd, 8pm at the Metro Studio.
The evening promises that "the mystery of collaboration, improvisation and skilled artistry will meet to wrap its audience in exciting experiences of physical and aural connection".
Featured solo singer/songwriters:
Anne Schaeffer, Galen Hartley, Roger Dean Young,
Paul O'Brien, Fintan O'Brien, Tina Pearson,
Brooke Maxwell and Cathy Lewis
Performing live with contemporary dance artists:
Brandy Baybutt, Jung-ah Chung, Lori Hamar,
Stacey Horton, Treena Stubel and Matilda Cobanli
Over the past year and a half, I have greatly appreciated Tripod's ability to initiate me to what had until then been, personally, the largely impervious world of modern dance. Come and see for yourself the ground breaking work being produced in our own city.
Tickets are $20 and can be purchased in advance at Moka House, Cook Street Village (cash only) or at the door.
