Interactive dance performance “Tricoter” by Foolish Operations

Tricoter (Knitting) is a participative performance where dance looks a lot like knitting! The audience, placed in a circle, produces the dance, in which wool threads weave links between the audience, the space and the performer. As the dance winds back and forth, the wool threads form a giant knot of bright colours. Memories of knitting in our own families come back to mind. You will experience a lovely moment of curiosity and exploration, along with the sense of belonging to a community.

Two performances of the show during the opening celebrations of Place des Arts du Grand Sudbury:

  • Saturday, April 30 at 10:30 am
  • Saturday, April 30 at 12:30 pm

The workshop-show is free, but reservations are required. Only ticket holders will be admitted to the workshop-show.
