WAVES | VAGUES
by Lua Shayenne Dance Company
WAVES | VAGUES is a new work of dance, song, music and words that addresses power structures and takes an honest look at the arduous road to justice and unity. Choreographed by Lua Shayenne.
“The show’s energy is infectious. As for that choreography, it’s riveting to watch. Complex rhythms are attacked with nimble feet and swinging arms.”
– Martha Schabas, Globe & Mail
“In the neo-traditional elements, the four dancers are in constant motion, negotiating through hard-driving solos, duets, trios and quartets with fierce energy…..Never losing the rhythm, their bodies tell a story.”
– Paula Citron, Critic
“Lua Shayenne DANCE COMPANY is a small group of gifted, fearlessly energetic young dancers.”
– David MacFarlane, The Toronto Star
