HOSTED BY DAN WATSON
La vie
Choreographed by SYlvie Bouchard
Performed by Mairéad Filgate.
La vie is a glimpse into a treasure that disappears in the blink of an eye.
It's a path forward, letting the past settle, and moving towards the unknown,
not without fear, but with willing eyes.
The terrains of our lives vary from rivers, to meadows, to mountains,
but the pounding of our own heart is something
we should always remember to trust.
Premieres this year at Dusk Dances 2014.

“I saw a girl under green laurel
Colder and whiter than the snow
Untouched by the sun for many years”.

It withers in the world
This flower-like human heart.”
