Celebrating her company’s 20th anniversary, choreographer Ginette Laurin explores the relationship between the immense and the infinitesimal. Echoing Luna, the piece she brought to Dance Umbrella 2001, Passare is layered with striking images and poetic movement along with huge perspective-altering video projections. Delving beneath the exterior body of skin and flesh, Laurin examines the essence of being, its fundamental emotions and its place in the universe.

Along with her company of nine dancers, Passare was further developed with a superb creative and technical team including Claude Théoret, an astrophysicist who introduced Laurin to the concepts of infinity, video artist Oana Suteu and composer Peter Scherer, whose mesmerising score embodies the tick-tocking of time.

 
"Invention in every movement, poetry in every intention, and tenderness in every gesture: Ginette Laurin's choreography is a sensitive and infinite revelation."
