For the first time ever, Dusk Dances heads to Neilson Park in the Scarborough-Malvern community!
With musical performances by the Bass'Ment Sound Crew and hosted by Shannon T. Boodram, our production at Neilson Park features:
• Julia Aplin's Inner City Sirens Pt II
• Zhenya Cerneacov, Mairéad Filgate, and Brodie Stevenson's One Couch.
• A youth commission by Tamla Matthews (supported by Elevated Grounds)
• A local commission by Last Of A Dying Breed (LOAD B)
Dusk Dances is an outdoor dance festival that brings an array of high quality contemporary and traditional dance to public parks. As dusk descends, a theatrical host ushers the audience - which invariably includes children, dog walkers and local residents - to five eclectic dance pieces that unfold in different areas of the park. Audiences are invited on a pay-what-you-can basis to an innovative site-specific festival, which is not only an artistic event, but a social and cultural one as well.
