Lamondance: Atlas of Being
Vancouver dance company presents innovative works.
Atlas of Being is a profound investigation of the human architecture as a whole, serving as a compilation of stories—both linear and non-linear—that shape the map of our shared existence. This production brings together a powerful collective of voices to explore the physical and emotional structures that define the human experience. The program features new contemporary works from innovative choreographers Calder White and Generous Mess, alongside a remount of the acclaimed and ethereal work Dream State by Lara Barclay.
Artistic Director Davi Rodrigues contributes three distinct works that dive deep into the human condition. His new creation, Beyond the Rainbow, delves into the intricate layers that exist beyond friendship and the various forms those bonds can take. This is followed by the Canadian premiere of Red Ocean, a powerful work that originally premiered in Brazil in 2017. Finally, the program features a reinvention of VIVA. Originally created in 2019 to celebrate Lamondance’s 10th Anniversary, this piece takes its name from the Italian word for "Celebration" and explores the poignant concept of life reinventing itself through the lens of a sad man.
