General Info

DUSK DANCES is back in Toronto for an 18th Season!
Highly physical, gently magical, charmingly fun...

Dusk Dances is an outdoor dance festival that brings high quality contemporary and traditional dance to public parks.  As dusk descends, a theatrical host leads the audience - which invariably includes children, dog walkers and local residents - to a range of eclectic dance pieces that unfold in different areas of the park.  Choreographers from various backgrounds are invited to perform a ten-minute piece inspired by the park’s natural environment.  Audiences are invited on a pay-what-you-can basis to an innovative site-specific festival, which is not only an artistic event but a social and cultural one as well.  2012 will be Dusk Dances’ 18th season.
