Short Works : 24 and Jack in a Box
Choreographies Crystal Pite and Aszure Barton
Saturday, August 1 – 8 p.m., Big Top

“These dancers have the energy of a tsunami with stamina to spare.” (The Los Angeles Times).

Under Louis Robitaille's inspired direction, [bjm_danse] continues on its stunning course, returning to FASS with a double program featuring two brilliant stars in the firmament of dance: Crystal Pite and Aszure Barton.

In Short Works:24, Crystal Pite offers two dozen brief vignettes brimming with vitality, while Aszure Barton's Jack in a Box continues in the flamboyant vein of Les Chambres des Jacques, the much-acclaimed audience favourite at FASS 2007. “If I had to choose a dance show of the year, it would be Les Ballets Jazz de Montréal.”(The Gazette).

A shock double offering from a company at the top of its form.

70 minutes, one intermission.
