Hello everyone!
Here we are. The 2023–2024 season is on its way. For nearly three years, we have been preparing this program through reflections, encounters, and dreams. It’s woven with conversations, big and small leaps, and trust. Its unfolding is nourished by our complicity with each of the seasons’ artists.
Hearts and souls of the season: Kim Ninkuru, Dorian Nuskind-Oder, Maria Kefirova, Alexandra ‘Spicey’ Landé and Nien Tzu Weng.
It is a joy to follow each of them: they already carry, inspire, and disrupt us. They are strong, they are tender, they are. They have carte blanche. Presently, we are still savoring eager anticipation and a delicious slice of the unknown. A season of connections and bubbling.
Discover their creative teams without whom nothing is possible. Discover COSMOS as well, a new presentation platform with which we launch the season.
Co-curators Ellen Furey and Winnie Ho who have been working with me in succession since 2019, are season stakeholders. Their curiosity, commitment, engagement, and generosity enliven all spheres of conceptualizing and programming.
Further, our audiodescription project for blind and near-blind audiences continues in collaboration with our precious presenting partners. Stay tuned for a progress report and our next funding campaign: we will need you! 😊
Looking forward to being together with you in different Montréal venues.
On behalf of the whole team (a ferociously passionate dream team) and the board, I wish you a great season!
