For beginner or experienced artists, this workshop is accessible to all.
Oral tradition is key in Africa and elsewhere. Ananse stories originate in Ghana, West Africa. These are ancient stories that relate to people’s normal lives, and are as relevant now as when they were created. Normally stories are told around the fireside, but today we get a chance to sit down with an expert who can talk about and share Ananse stories in the beautiful Belleville library.
The Afrique En Cirque show symbolizes the strength, agility and joy of life found in African youth. A handful of daring acrobats, accompanied by their musicians, perform to the pulsating rhythm of the djembes of Guinea with their authentic and original choreography and acrobatics. With the melodious sound of the Kora, Yamoussa Bangoura transports us to a place where the diversity of traditional African arts is illuminated and combined with the virtuosity of a modern North American Circus performance.
Directed by Ian Feltham “Between Breaths” by Robert Chafe, tells the story of Jon Lien, an American Biologist living in Newfoundland with his wife Judy. Transplanted from South Dakota to study sea birds, he finds himself immersed in the cold North Atlantic freeing whales trapped in fishing gear. Recruiting Wayne, a resident Newfoundlander, he finds a way to set them free and preserve the precious fishing gear, the lifeblood of the local fishing industry. Yet Jon is suffering from a debilitating disease that will leave him wheelchair-bound and locked inside his mind. This is a story of being trapped and being set free and what we learn about ourselves along the way. This play is performed in one long act and the characters remain onstage for the entire production.
