With a cast of award-winning dancers transforming the Alexandra Dance Hall into a colourful environment that is part 80s rumpus room, part visual art installation, and part secret chamber, Digital Folk explores a generation’s approach to identity, physicality, social dance, and performance. An interdisciplinary collaboration between James Gnam, Natalie Purschwitz, James Proudfoot, and 10 dance artists, the piece is a video game, costume party, music and dance performance, and art installation all rolled into one. Digital Folk runs November 3 and 4, 2018 at Alexandra Dance Hall (936 9th Ave. SE) with three shows per night—7:00, 8:00, and 9:00pm. Suggested ticket price is $20 and ages 10+ welcome.
