Dear Montréal,
This week we had a wonderful bilingual interview with Manuel Roque. Roque is the Choreographer and one of the performers in his new work Ne meurs pas tout de suite, on nous regarde. Tangente and festival Quartier Danses are presenting the piece this week.
After the break Jenn reviews Josée Gagnon’s Entre flamme et fumée. Josée was a guest on our August 23rd episode, and is a voice and movement artist who presented this work in a yoga studio.
Then Allison and Jenn review Raoul, a unique production by the grandson of Charlie Chaplin, James Thierrée.
To come full circle back to festival Quartiers Danses, J.D. reviews the ups and downs of the festival showcase, An evening with emerging artists.
Our show from SEPTEMBER 20th, 2012

Salsa Descalza, Bouge d’ici and more!
Hello Montréal,
Carmen Ruiz and Andrea Nińo from Salsa Descalza came on the show to tell us all about their spicy project. It’s a figurative stew of various ingredients including dance, theatre and music featuring “gypsy melodies and afro-Colombian rhythms.” We talk about how the project works, and their live events one of which is coming up tomorrow night at Sala Rossa. We even play a track to get you in the mood.
After the break we have Amy Blackmore, Artistic Director of Bouge d’ici in to explain the organization, festival and promote the call for submissions to Common Space/L'Espace Commun. Allison is also involved in the project, and helps to explain and inspire.

We end the show with a quick dance calendar covering Raoul, the Montréal Flamenco Festival and Quartier Danses Festival. It’s the time to start seeing some shows!

Dena Davida, Tangente & l'Atelier choréographic des Grands Ballets
Dear Montréal,
This week on Movement Museum we started with a show review. Two weeks ago, on August 23rd we had Andrew Skeels from Les Grands Ballets de Montréal on to talk about the project À Suivre… l’Atelier choréographic des Grands Ballets Canadien de Montréal. This project gives the company’s dancers an opportunity to choreograph their own work and present it in a showcase. J.D. reports back on the show, and encourages us all to attend next year.
On to the future, Allison and J.D. offer up some interesting events and shows for Dance Calendar coming up this month.
In the second half hour of the show Dena Davida, Co-artistic and co-executive director of Tangente, joined us in studio. We had a delightful interview with her about Tangente’s mandate, and it’s role in the lives of emerging and innovative artists. We also get the scoop on their future plans to settle down in their very own space.
