Réunion.s

Chanted spirographs

Sorority folklore

Quadraphony of gesture

Uchronia of the communal

Let us gather in quiet strength

Look towards the center to better see ahead

 

Réunion.s is a rite with six women from a bygone optimistic era. A meeting point between kaleidoscopic gestures and temporal fractures, their practice carves a cyclical, polyrhythmic path that only sisterhood can withstand. As their cadenced movements collapse intofractal patterns, is this gathered group truly who we think they are?

The company is supported by the Canada Council for the Arts, the Conseil des Arts et des Lettres du Québec and the Conseil des Arts de Montréal, and is a member of Circuit-Est centre chorégraphique and Art circulation.
