Toronto’s longest running contemporary dance series, nominated for nine Dora Mavor Moore Awards in 2007/08.

 

DanceWorks tackles new territories as 2008/09 Mainstage Series choreographers consider the urgent state of the environment and the consequences of today’s fast paced, global culture. As the season unfolds, experience the intensity of bodies in space that question and reveal psychological, cultural and natural environments.
