Body Awareness Laboratory (BAL) is seeking actors, dancers and artists from any discipline who recognize themselves as crossing borders between artistic languages and want to explore movement to develop a process of collective creation.

BAL is a welcoming place to explore a variety of body techniques to nurture and develop an interdisciplinary theatre play throughout this year.

BAL is seeking to promote multidisciplinary research and collective dialogue. This time the premise is going to be A Time to Fly as a metaphor of migrations, change of destiny, hopes and dreams that push us to fly. What is flying like for you?

From connecting with the movement itself, the expansion of rhythmic body awareness in such a way could extend the expressive spectrum. As a result, this laboratory is looking to obtain the first collaborative approach.

Date: March 5, 2023, from 2 – 5pm
Location: Morpheus Rehearsal Centre (3512 – 5th Ave. NW), Lower level
