COSMOS
Designed by Ellen Furey and Sophie Corriveau, and curated with Winnie Ho, COSMOS is a new performance platform at Danse-Cité. From October 4th to 7th, 2023, audiences can discover two choreographic projects created during a three-week creative immersion at the Mainline Theatre.
Danse-Cité is looking to shake up the rhythm of a creative process. For this first edition, two artists will receive time, space, and resources to present their choreographic work without depending on successful grant applications. We have rented the Mainline Theatre for three weeks and are offering a fee for the process and performances. Each artist can allocate funds as they see fit. COSMOS aims to offer artists the means and the opportunity to create in a context centering freedom and playfulness. Following the three-week creative process, four performances will reveal the fruits of this exploratory challenge. The purchase of a ticket gives access to : Performance #1 + Meal + Performance #2.
Kim Ninkuru and Dorian Nuskind-Oder are the first two artists to accept the conditions offered by the curators:
• Create a performance in three weeks;
• Conclude the three-week period by a series of performances;
• Work as you wish with access to the theatre 24 hours a day, seven days a week;
• Perform in your work;
• Use limited technical resources;
• Avail yourself to a technical and dramaturgical team;
• Collaborate with the team of your choice.

looper
In this new creation I am interested in loops.
Ritual, repetition, training, accumulation.
The daily maintenance of our bodies.
This exploration will take place in collaboration with circus artist Elena Lev, who has been inventing and mastering the art of spinning hoops for more than 25 years
