Canada's most celebrated dance artist, Marie Chouinard, transforms Bach's MAGNIFICAT into a striking contemporary dance work.
On stage, 12 dancers move with precision and intensity. Their movements respond to one of the most powerful scores ever written. This breathtaking performance can only come from the mind of one choreographer.
Marie Chouinard has spent decades redefining contemporary dance. Her fearless originality has captivated audiences in Canada and around the world. MAGNIFICAT is Chouinard's most ambitious work yet. The performance represents her take on Bach's first large choral piece — one that has filled cathedrals and concert halls for nearly three centuries.
Come see a performance that is joyful, precise, and alive. A celebration of bodily freedom, spirituality, and human energy.
Stay after the performance for a conversation with company members and step inside the creative process behind the work.
Please be advised that this performance contains partial nudity.
