About

Come join Evolve Arts Collective (EAC) and take part in Kelowna Culture Days at

the Rotary Centre for the Arts! Enjoy a sneak peek viewing of a brand new

show in development followed by a screening of Provoke - A Fringe Show

and Q&A with EAC founder, Kurt Werner.

Our show in development is a one-man show called Is It My Time? Catch

a glimpse as to what a dancer goes through while working on their craft.

As they move, what are they thinking about? What is their driving force to

keep going? What is working in their creative process like? One moment,

he passes back and forth between dance sequences and one-sided

conversations and whimsically carries himself through the regiment of

dance. The next, he feels the weight and hardship of the long pursuit of

obtaining his dream career. All this leads up to one of the biggest

questions of a dancer’s life. Is it my time?

Provoke - A Fringe Show is a showcase of two dance works that are

meant to help be a conversation starter on topics that have become more

prevalent in today’s society, by providing a different platform to share an

interpretation of these topics to hopefully bring newfound exposure and

understanding for audience members while provoking deeper

conversations afterwards.
