Manuel Roque & show reviews!

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

Take care,

Josée Gagnon and Andrew Skeels

Dear Montréal,

Today was double Interview day on Movement Museum.  We broke the episode into two separate half hour interviews, each with a unique flavor.

In the first half hour Jenn introduces us to Josée Gagnon, a movement and vocal artist.  This multi-talented artist shares some of her experiences and insights with us, and promotes her upcoming show.  You can catch her show, Entre Flamme et Fumée, at Yoga de l’Éveil from August 29th, 30th and the 31st at 8:30pm.  We followed the interview with one of Josée’s tracks, Mois d'août.

In the second half of the show J.D. interviews Andrew Skeels, a dancer for Les Grands Ballets de Montréal and one of the choreographers of the Atelier chorégraphiques des Grands Ballets.  Andrew talks about the project, which is an opportunity for the company’s performers to explore their own choreographic process as well as different aspects of producing a show.  The performance is free, and runs next weekend, check it out!  We also talk to Andrew about his experience with Les Grands Ballets, and his career in general.
