Nov 16, 2007 - Nov 17, 2007
SPECIAL INTIMATE PERFORMANCE Friday November16 & Saturday November17 1-4pm (please sign up for a 20 min slot) SOIE SOYEUSE (SILKY SILK) Yvon Bonenfant These 20-minute 'personal performances', created for audiences no larger than five, bring you into a world of silk and sound. Moving around you, Bonenfant chants intense stories - of wind and snow, of struggle and hunger, and of transformation and emergence - all through wordless singing and physical action. Vigorous and wild, yet somehow strangely sweet, this performance brings you into an audio encounter among live bodies and living, breathing hearts. Silky Silk is an invitation to engage with silk, to feel silk and to be silky. It opens our unconscious desire to enjoy one’s own skin, and to go on the difficult journey toward the liberation of skin to be sensual.
