Anatomalia: anatomy + anomaly + femalia at Scotiabank Dance Centre

An exciting world premiere created by Berlin-based queer Canadian choreographer Meagan O’Shea, Anatomalia is an adventurous international collaboration, and a passionate collective healing of the damage done to ‘femalia’. Bringing together a cast of five exceptional dancers from Canada, Mexico and Europe, original sound and design, and local participants, the work cycles between shame and curiosity, repulsion and desire, fear and trust, to release the trauma stored in the body, and reclaim joy. Theatrical, playful, and imaginative, this one-of-a-kind creation celebrates survival and recovery.

This is a promenade-style performance where the audience is free to move around the space to see the unfolding of the work from different perspectives, for a richly immersive and intimate experience. There will be limited seating available for those that need it.
