Performing Arts in Canada

Momentum Dance

Founded in 2025, MOMENTUM is a student-led, national non-profit reshaping Canada’s post-secondary dance culture. We’re built on community, artistry, and collaboration — a movement where students don’t just dance together, but build, create, and invest in each other. We host Canada’s only national university dance competition every March, bringing teams together to share work, connect, and push the scene forward. Beyond the stage, we've partnered with studios like Run The Flex and Studio North to offer students opportunities to teach workshops, make connections, and grow their artistry. MOMENTUM is more than an organization. It’s a new era for student dance—by students, for students, powered by community.

All Bodies Dance

We are an inclusive dance company located on unceded Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), Səl̓ílwətaɬ (Tsleil- Waututh), and xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam) territories (Vancouver, BC, Canada). Our work brings together artists with and without disabilities to explore the endless creative possibilities in difference. Our company’s work straddles labels of community-engaged and professional practice. We aim to dismantle assumptions, biases and default notions around contemporary dance, the theatre and the dancing body. We offer accessible and inclusive dance classes for people of all abilities, genders, sizes, and backgrounds in addition to creating opportunities for diverse artists to practice, research and create innovative, inclusive dance. In our mixed-ability dance practice, differences are regarded as creative strengths. Dancers explore the choreographic possibilities of wheelchairs, crutches, canes and celebrate diverse ways of moving and perceiving. We seek to make opportunities for every body to discover dance and for under-represented artists to access dance training and mentorship. We want to widen the spectrum of who dances and what dance can be.

Re Current Theatre

Re:Current Theatre is built upon three principles: 1. To create theatre that responds to performance, as a means to instill thought and provoke conversation. To pull apart and rearrange methods of performance. To breathe new life into an idea and start an intimate and intellectual conversation with the audience to redefine our experience of live performance. Re:Current Theatre fosters a space for the development of live theatre that responds to our surroundings and personal history with intellectual rigour and whimsical imagination. Our aesthetic uses a mix of current and historical technology, a range of acting methods and rehearsal techniques, and a visual sensibility to locate pulsing questions in intimate settings. Re:Current Theatre was founded in 2014. Originally, grown out of a shared interest in adapting classic texts, we wanted to produce live performance that would draw on both our academic and conservatory training. Frustrated by the lack of rigor and imagination we encountered, we decided to redefine performance in a way that would challenge how we approached our own work by placing us at risk for failure. Lead by Artistic Director, Brian Postalian, the company first produced Wild Duck Project, a four actor adaptation of Ibsen’s The Wild Duck, lit entirely by four wireless lamps. From 2014-2016, the company ran The Open Artist Share, a monthly(ish) pay-what-you-can series of workshops for emerging artists. Since then company has been working on developing new work with playwright/performer Jackie Rowland on This Is What I Know. Re:Current Theatre recently produced the sold-out hit at the 2017 SummerWorks Festival, The Smile Off Your Face, which won the SummerWorks Award for Best Production.
