Peggy Baker Dance Projects presents the world premiere of locus plot at Betty Oliphant Theatre

Legendary dance artist Peggy Baker deepens her artistry as an ensemble choreographer with this ambitious new show, her first full-length ensemble work in a rich and varied 40-year career previously dedicated to the creation and performance of solo works. For locus plot, “I’m spinning off on pristine mathematical equations that describe movement in space,” enthuses Baker. Five exceptional company dancers – Ric Brown, Sarah Fregeau, Kate Holden, Sean Ling and Sahara Morimoto – disrupt the underpinnings of schematic mathematical formulae as they explode, collapse and slide into dramatic dance-theatre scenes, while handwritten equations and locus diagrams are projected over the stage. Pianist and electronic music composer John Kameel Farah performs live.
