For one night only! Be part of the creation process! Grace, spirit, sensuality and artistic rigour are the characteristics of La Otra Orilla, the company directed by dancer Myriam Allard and singer Hedi "El Moro" Graja. They are back with a new piece that will delight the spectator, as audiences and critics alike are enchanted with its hybrid, iconoclastic flamenco, richly poetic and very contemporary style. With a rigorous blend of dance, music and video, this new work, co-produced by Danse Danse, will benefit from a creative residency at the Segal Centre. With the generous support of:

Coup de Coeur
"In Centaur Theatre's intimate hall, I had the opportunity last night to see Intimate Apparel. The play is headlined by Segal Centre 2012-2013 spokesperson Ranee Lee, and stars Lucinda Davis. The play is a period piece, set at the beginning of the last century, with beautiful set, lighting and costumes. Great work from the entire cast. One of the best works I have ever seen from nationally prominent director Micheline Chevrier. On top of everything else, it is worth the price of admission to see her graceful and elegantly staged transitions. Plays at Centaur Theatre www.centaurtheatre.com until April 29th.
Anyone who knows me knows that I love a good puppet show. Canada is home to one of the best marionettists in the world, Ronnie Burkett. The man is a genius. His last show, Billy Twinkle: Requiem for a Golden Boy, was a masterpiece. I will check out his latest, Penny Plain, tonight at Place des Arts. I encourage you to do the same. Plays at the Cinquième Sale until April 21st (www.pda.qc.ca )." – Paul Flicker
