SUMMARY:Double Bill: basin/Urge
DESCRIPTION:Double Bill: basin/Urge\nMolly McDermott/ Kate Stashko (Edmonton) \nThere are the vessels we choose – a sink and a jacket – and the vessels we inherit – our bodies: Two female bodies and all of the ephemeral\, gritty\, gentle\, brutish and strange traces that are inextricably wrapped up in them. With physical rigour and precision\, these solos lead to transformative states and sensations that are then transmitted to you\, vessel to vessel. \nJanuary 17+ 18\n7:30 PM\nTickets | $30/$25 Members \nSHOW CREDITS \nbasin \nChoreographer/performer – Kate Stashko\nSound design/performer – Raylene Campbell\nOriginal set & light design – Whittyn Jason\nAdapted set & light design – Even Gilchrist\nOutside eye – Tia Kushniruk \nPhoto credit: Marc Chalifoux \nUrge \nChoreographer/performer – Molly McDermott\nMusic – DakhaBrakha\nLight Design – Even Gilchrist\nOutside eye – Alison Kause\nStage Manager – Andraya Diogo \nPhoto credit: Armand Bladon \nFEATURING\n\n\nKate Stashko\nKate Stashko is a dance artist currently based in amiskwaciy-wâskahikan / Edmonton.
