๐…๐Ž๐”๐‘ ๐ƒ๐€๐˜๐’ until โ€œDeep ENDโ€ is on stage in Regina! Some words from , an original cast member:

โ€œMeghannโ€™s work demands agile athleticism, a willingness to encounter discomfort and your own edges, and complete presence. In each work, there is a process of relinquishing control, allowing the body to speak from its innermost and primal layers, and at some point, some sort of release. Iโ€™ve been working with Meghann since 2018 now, and in certain ways, I have grown up as an interpreter and a person inside of her choreographies. The energy of her rehearsals is vibrant and driving โ€” she demands a certain level of specificity and detail, and as a result, the process is always both challenging and completely fulfilling. Dance feels unarguably important and purposeful within the walls of these Calgary studio spaces. Having the opportunity to be inside of Deep END for the third time and over the course of 3 years is extremely special โ€” the closer I get to feeling like I know the work, the more I know I must expect the unexpectedโ€ฆ Ride the wave, baby.โ€

โ€œI love process and have so many vivid memories from the initial creation phases of this work. It is a work that asks you to dig a little deeper every time you dance it. Iโ€™m excited for more audiences to dive into the deep end with us!โ€

During โ€™s upcoming tour to Regina, SK and Canmore, AB, Sylvie will be a rehearsal assistant for the remount of โ€œDeep ENDโ€ as she awaits the arrival of a baby, in fall 2023! โœจ

Anddddd itโ€™s over.

A decade of dreaming it, Two years of planning, A spread out process, Then 9-weeks rehearsing full time, To finish with 2 shows!

Wow it takes a village yโ€™allโ€ฆ we are pleased to say we employed over 20 people with this production both on stage and behind the scenes. We canโ€™t say thank you enough to everyone on our team fulfilling our vision and making Project InTandem another success.
What you saw on stage took many many hours from so many beautiful minds and we are beyond grateful! ๐Ÿ™

Thank you to ๐—ฌ๐—ข๐—จ for supporting us on this journey, as we continue to develop our practice in YYC. Your comments & energy after the show encourage us to keep pushing and to know that our efforts are valued ๐Ÿค

Also, Thank you to Springboard & the Fluid Fest for this partnership and investing in YYC artists. And HUGE thank you to our funders: Canada Council for the Arts & Calgary Arts Development. .council

We had to work our butts off for this and we are so proud of what we accomplished. Side bar note.. If you ever wonder what itโ€™s like to produce something like this - itโ€™s 12+ hour days for months on end to produce and dance in a show of this capacity.

Stay tuned as dancer/producer Meghann Michalsky] is writing a blog about post show blues. This is rarely talked about in our sector and something we believe needs more light shed on it as all the artists involved recover.
