Event Notes
From visionary Montreal-based dance company Tentacle Tribe and the imaginative minds of its Artistic Directors Elon Höglund and Emmanuelle Lê Phan, both alumni of Cirque Du Soleil comes a mesmerizing kaleidoscopic dream orchestrated by the sole power of two choreographers, five dancers and a few mirrors.
The quintet of dancers move between a reflective floor and movable mirror panels that are manipulated from different angles. Multiplied tenfold, their bodies seamlessly unite and intermingle to create a single organism in synergy with Höglund’s music. Prism opens up a myriad of possibilities, distorting perspectives and deconstructing movement into infinite combinations of colourful images. In creating a dreamlike journey with a truly hypnotic effect.
