I have always had a fascination with dance. It combines some of the finest capabilities of the human form. Not only this, but these combinations give rise to a special synergy. Even the most accomplished writer would have trouble assigning words to those synergies. Power and grace. Agility and stage charisma. Fitness and presence of mind. It’s incredible.
The Dali Universe features another layer of collaboration. This time, dance is accompanied by a thought-provoking theatre piece, woven into the storyline and produced with an impressive collection of stage effects. And of course, there is music.
I can’t say more than that. You’ll have to see the show to witness the melody of dance, theatre and effects.
What can be reiterated is that in life there are moments when the human senses are able to take in something so special that it can’t really be explained. These moments, the images, sounds, are available in many arenas. An eternal sporting moment. A fantastical piece of music. And of course dance.
This NG Farrell partner is happy to know this prevailing truth and looking forward to cherishing a moment much the same when The Dali Universe opens this Thursday.
The Dali Universe is a production of Vancouver City Dance Theatre, and hits the Vancouver Playhouse stage this Thursday, Friday and Saturday (2 shows). Tickets available at the door or Ticketmaster.
