October 12th - 14th @ 8PM [Matinee on Sunday] Studio D, SFU Goldcorp Centre for the Arts, Vancouver Duration: 20 minutes EXILE is a somber yet humourous theatrical dance work exploring diaspora, isolation and censorship. Set to composer Remy Siu’s cheeky and subversive, Hong Kong Exile, the work exists in nine movements performed by a live string quintet. EXILE plays with duration and expectation, using surgical masks as ever-transforming symbols of oppression, ritual, and consumerism. Dancers: Jennifer Hamman, Lindsey Shaw, Francesca Frewer, Zoe Nichele, Shannon Hargrove, Olivia Shaffer, Clare Twiddy Musicians: Carol Hur (violin), Hyunah Cho (violin), Sarah Kwok (viola), Shin-Jung Nam (cello), Robyn Reekie (bass) Choreographers: Natalie Tin Yin Gan & Milton Lim Composer: Remy Siu Camera + Editing: Sepehr Samimi Running time: 20 minutes Part of Ascension 2012 For more information: http://www.hongkongexile.com/hkx-string-quartet
