Vancouver’s contemporary dance scene takes centre stage in the 14th edition of Dance In Vancouver, presented by The Dance Centre November 20-24.
This curated biennial event provides a unique opportunity to experience dance by a diverse and creative community of BC artists. The 2024 edition features performances and showings by companies including Action at a Distance/Vanessa Goodman, Anya Saugstad, Company 605, FakeKnot, Lee Su-Feh, Starr Muranko/Raven Spirit Dance, Tasha Faye Evans, Ziyian Kwan/Odd Meridian Arts, and more.
Initiated in 1997 and produced every two years by The Dance Centre, Dance In Vancouver (DIV) is unique for its concentrated focus on promoting the province’s contemporary dance talent, not only to local audiences but also to dance promoters and curators who come from across Canada and around the world to experience the dynamic contemporary dance of the Canadian West Coast.
In addition to public performances and events, visiting presenters will have private showings and experience works by over 30 BC-based artists over five days.
Executive Director Mirna Zagar explains: “Dance In Vancouver works on many levels. It’s a great opportunity for audiences to experience work by local artists, our artists get the chance to build their national and international connections, and the presenters become more informed about our dynamic and diverse dance scene. Over time, we have seen significant growth in touring activity, and BC dance is now enjoying enhanced visibility on the world stage.”
