Events Description
Good Women Dance Collective presents…Convergence.
GWDC returns to a double bill format. The show will include the world premiere of a new piece commissioned for GWDC from Pamela Tzeng (Calgary), as well as Ruminate, a duet work by Meredith Kalaman (Vancouver).
Tzeng’s work holds space for the meanings, privileges and the shame that the collective’s bodies carry, exploring what is seen and unseen in the absence of otherness. Ruminate, by Kalaman, is inspired by the “necking process” where giraffes violently thrash their necks at each other in combat.
This duet “chews over” the desire to dominate another being by means of physical force juxtaposed with the need for tender care.
CHEERS & TEARS: A Journey Into Whiteness
by Pamela Tzeng (Calgary)
Featuring the Good Women
An absurd yet honest look at the ensemble’s relationship to whiteness. Let us expose from the inside out the experiences and impact of the “Canadian W-H-I-T-E Lady“ on the well being and well becoming of themselves and humans in all parts of the living planet.
