Presented by OURO Collective in partnership with Massey Theatre
Don’t miss the electrifying opening night of OUROFEST! Experience bold new works by BC’s own Cristina Bucci (2023 Jacqueline Lemieux Prize) and Joanne Park, alongside a special performance from our international guest artist all the way from Greece, TARANTISM.
TARANTISM will share a powerful solo blending street dance, ballroom Latin, and physical theatre to embody the battle between ego, superego, and subconscious. Acclaimed internationally, this work pulls you into a raw exploration of control, chaos, and the human condition.
This presentation is part of OUROFEST, an annual multi-day street dance festival celebrating dancers, DJs, and community, hosted by OURO Collective. This year the festival will include two mainstage shows in partnership with the Massey, featuring celebrated local and international street dance artists. This is a ‘not to be missed’ chance to see street dance in a theatre space and join in witnessing and celebrating this boundary crossing form.
This performance is family-friendly and welcomes audiences from all communities. If you’ve been to a dozen battles before or have no idea what street dance is, we’re excited to welcome you to the theatre and share the work of these captivating artists.
