Kidd Pivot

Workshop with Brandon Alley, Livona Ellis, Greg Lau and Renée Sigouin

Kidd Pivot’s workshop is an opportunity for dancers to experience the choreographic work of Crystal Pite.

Using examples drawn from recent work, participants will explore some of the techniques and tools used in generating and performing Kidd Pivot repertoire.  

The workshop will be divided into two sessions, providing participants with the chance to work with different company dancers and approach the work from various perspectives.

Marc Brew Company

Workshop with Marc Brew

Marc Brew's extensive experience as a dancer and choreographer with a disability, working with disabled and non-disabled dancers means that he challenges performers’ expectations of their own limitations.

With his unique perspective and skills, Brew explores with the participants the beauty of difference through movement led exploration, creative tasks and set material.

Providing the dancers with a new vocabulary that enhances their creativity, he redefines expectations of physicality for performers.

The workshop will start with a contemporary class and will continue with some choreographic work with insight into his latest piece “an Accident / a Life".

Workshop for dancers with professional experience, with and without disabilities, organised in collaboration with les RP danses Genève.
