Dark Matters
February 26 & 27, 2010
Vancouver Playhouse
“Dark matter” is the terra incognita of our day. Comprising roughly 96 percent of the observable universe, dark matter affects the speed, structure and evolution of galaxies, yet its nature remains a mystery. This potent, affecting darkness is paralleled in Crystal Pite’s Dark Matters. Emerging out of Pite’s curiosity and fascination with the unseen forces at work on mind and body, Dark Matters, features seven extraordinary dancers, and a stunning original score from long-time collaborator Owen Belton.
Presented with the Vancouver 2010 Cultural Olympiad/Olympiade Culturelle.
Co-produced by Dance Victoria, National Arts Centre (Ottawa), L’Agora de la danse (Montreal) and Arts Partners in Creative Development.
