The Impossible Has Already Happened is a Canada/ New Zealand investigation and performance event about the power, purpose and necessity of Water, and the human relationship to it. 8 performers, two co-choreographer, two countries and many threads of exploration.
This work is sustained through dialogue with artists and community leaders to remember our origin stories and discuss the critical role water plays in our current Climate Change crisis. Through dance, film projections, spoken narratives, interactive installations, and immersive kinesthetic performance, this work takes on a multitude of relationships to water in its power to sustain, nourish, dazzle or disrupt our planet. It draws parallels to our flowing lives, to stagnated situations, and presence of being. Online workshops featured Elders, knowledge keepers, scientists, and dance artists in both Canada and New Zealand. Everyone in the world has a relationship with water. We want to hear yours. The world needs to hear all of our stories, and our need and love for clean water. Piece Tours New Zealand in spring 2023, Canada in the fall, booking now.
