[storm]'s a-coming - battery opera March 21 - 23rd, 2007
limbs broken on the rack of the sea - the human spirit struggles through
(VANCOUVER, BC) The upcoming performances of battery opera's [storm] are March 21 -23, 2007 at the Scotia Dance Centre for the Vancouver International Dance FestivalFrom battery opera's website:
A turbulent meditation on the aching loneliness of being human, [storm] uses archetypes drawn from man’s relationship with the sea to delineate a history that is at once sacred and profane, cruel and tender. Performed by four men, the work is an evocative accumulation of raucous singing, quiet reflection and delirious dancing that provokes transformation of the ordinary into the emblematic, and the mundane into the symbolic. [storm] celebrates the power and fragility of the human body that breathes, speaks, sings, thinks, moves, dances.
Performed by Yannick Matthon, David mcIntosh, Ron Stewart, Max Murphy
choreography and direction by Lee Su-Feh
original music and text by David McIntosh
lighting design by James Proudfoot
dramaturgy by DD Kugler

I called the number, battery opera, and bought a ticket and a membership. Now, I'm nearly cool. I'll see everyone Thursday night at the Scotia Dance Centre!
