ODC/Dance Summer Sampler August 11, 2012

Aug 11, 4pm and 7pm

Cut-Out Guy
Unintended Consequences
Part of a Longer Story

Join us as we bid a fond farewell to ODC Dancer Daniel Santos. His decade of dancing with ODC has left an indelible mark on the company. This program showcases his intensity, athleticism and passion.

Cut-Out Guy, KT Nelson's first-ever all male work shifts from fierce to vulnerable against the music of acclaimed electronic artist Ben Frost.

The insightfully humorous Unintended Consequences shines a critical light on the current state of political affairs and our inadvertent complicity in them with music by renowned performance artist and musician Laurie Anderson.

Brenda Way's Part of a Longer Story explores the elegance of language, the male and female spirit, and in a riveting central duet featuring Daniel Santos and Vanessa Thiessen, the passion and pathos of a mature relationship.

ODC choreographers Brenda Way and KT Nelson will be on hand to shed some light on the dancing you'll see on stage and Daniel will give a talk back immediately following the 4pm performance. Join us to celebrate Daniel Santos as he embarks on the next chapter of his artistic life.
