In this exclusive Canadian engagement, Tanztheater Wuppertal Pina Bausch presents the engaging and idiosyncratic full-length work Danzón, choreographed in 1995 by the legendary director-choreographer Pina Bausch. The late avant-garde icon, best known for her fierce, emotionally raw dance-theatre productions, takes a refreshingly upbeat attitude with Danzón, a work which showcases the dancers’ distinct and magnetic personalities. With the theme of dance as centerpiece, Danzón explores the stages of human life from cradle to grave — with an especially humorous spotlight on adolescent desire — and employs Bausch’s signature scenic collage to frame this brilliantly entertaining romp. A poignant tribute to the genius of Pina Bausch.
