Dance Double Bill: Fortress (Livona Ellis & Rebecca Margolick) and About Time (Ne.Sans Opera & Dance, Idan Cohen)

Chutzpah! presents two dance World Premieres, with the support of its community partner, The Dance Centre. In Fortress, the debut collaborative pieceby Chutzpah! resident artists, and festival favourites, Rebecca Margolick and Livona Ellis, the artists explore their connection to their ever-evolving relationship to femininity, and the balance between their strength and vulnerability. Seeking both discomfort and safety, they draw inspiration from the matriarchs in their lives, building toward a deeper understanding of themselves .

About Time continues Idan Cohen’s journey through Philip Glass ’ solo piano etudes, performed live by award-winning pianist Leslie Dala, featuring dancers Will Jessup and Benjamin DeFaria.
