Belle Spirale Dance Projects is thrilled to present Exhale featuring two new creations.
World Premiere by Wen Wei Wang
Working with dancers Alexis Fletcher and Justin Rapaport, Wang explores the intimate geography of human connection. Joined by mezzo-soprano Emma Parkinson, they investigate the delicate textures of human connection—how we touch, how we breathe together, and how we navigate the weight of final moments. In Wang's hands, the interplay of dance and voice becomes a meditation on presence, distance, and the choices we make when everything hangs in the balance.
It's a rare opportunity to witness one of Canada's most celebrated choreographers in dialogue with seasoned performers, complete with the wonder of live music.
World Premiere by Alexis Fletcher and Ariana Barr
In this intimate new solo, co-creators Alexis Fletcher and Ariana Barr examine the profound moment between stimulus and response—that fraction of a second where choice is born. Through a distinctly female lens, they explore how intuition, memory, and conditioning shape our decisions in an increasingly uncertain world. What emerges is a meditation on agency and pause, revealing the quiet power that lives in the space before we act.
Presented as a solo for Ariana, and at a time when we're all collectively holding our breath, two artists dive deep into that suspended moment, finding strength and wisdom in the waiting.
