BLOCKING

By Helen Walkley
A Firehall Arts Centre presentation

A recent hit performance from Dancing on the Edge Festival, blocking, is choreographed by Helen Walkley and danced by creative collaborator Josh Martin with serendipity, rigor, and ingenuity. Martin performs this solo work with 250 small cedar blocks. Moments emerge and transform: whimsical, primal, risky, futile and tender. Balance is fragile, tested, and there are no mistakes. Helen Walkley’s choreography reveals the body, breath and stillness.

We’re Grateful to Be Here.

The Firehall Arts Centre is located on the unceded and traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) First Nations where they lived and gathered together for thousands of years. Acknowledging their connections to these lands is a significant part of what the Firehall considers when choosing the productions and presentations we undertake and how that work shapes and impacts those around us. We ask our community to reflect on what being present here means to you and those around you.
