Dance in High Park: Solo in High Park

Access

About

Over three weekends, the High Park Amphitheatre comes to life with dance. Audiences are invited to experience some of Toronto's most gifted and imaginative dancers as they grace the stage in one of the city's most majestic parks. These family-friendly, physically distanced performances will adhere to up-to-date safety protocols regarding the COVID-19 pandemic. Performances are pay-what-you-can and a reservation is required. The first weekend is Solo in High Park. Co-curated by Seika Boye & Timea Wharton-Suri and hosted by Nicole Inica Hamilton of Turn Out Radio, this program features solos by Travis Knights, Carmen Romero, Raoul Pillay, and Alyssa Martin/Rock Bottom Movement (featuring Sam Grist) in a range of dance styles: tap, flamenco, house, and contemporary. Audiences will be treated to entertaining performances by dancers who reveal the precision, depth and significance of their craft and the importance of the audience to the art they make.
