REBECCA MARGOLICK & ANDREA PEÑA

Birds sing a pretty song – Rebecca Margolick, New York, Montreal premiere

Choreographer and performer Rebecca Margolick presents a high-voltage, rock-and-roll performance with a live guitarist and a trio unfolding in a world where solitude, beauty, and chaos loom. The two dancer-performers are prisoners of a digital, hyper-social world full of increasingly oppressive surveillance, searching for meaning in reality.

Untitled I – Andrea Peña, Montreal, Premiere

For this first solo requested by the FQD, Andrea Peña questions herself on the resilience of each human being. How is the body able to regain its original state despite the transformations and changes incurred by life? She highlights the states of silence, harmony, repetition, and vulnerability that characterize each of us.
