Series 8:08 Alternative Technique Classes
February 1, 2010 | 10am - 1pm
Dovercourt House, 805 Dovercourt Road (N. of Bloor St.)
Choreographer and performer Gavin Webber has been working professionally in dance theatre for over 10 years. During his time in Toronto, he, along with other Splintergroup members, will host a masterclass of contemporary technique that includes a technical class dealing with floor work and release and ways to build choreography through the exploration of themes. He will use his distinctive brand of aggressively physical dance with roadkill as a reference.
After completing his degree at the Centre for the Performing Arts in Adelaide, Australia, Gavin joined Meryl Tankard Australian Dance Theatre with whom he danced for six years, touring through Australia, Scandinavia, Europe, Israel and North America (including dates at Harbourfront Centre). After moving to Europe, he studied with Maguy Marin in Lyon before joining the company Ultima Vez in Brussels. He continues to work extensively in both Europe and Australia, teaching and performing in his own work as well as for Wim Vandekybus.
Masterclass is open to the professional dance and performance community and/or senior dance students.
