theatre dybbuk specializes in using historical narratives that intersect with considerations of identity and heritage to illuminate the forces at play in our contemporary societies.
In this workshop, the artists of theatre dybbuk take participants through a process in which they gain tools to investigate their own personal and/or communal narratives, texts, and turning points as vessels to create new theatrical work that explores the complexities of our world.
This session uses a combination of writing, vocal work, and movement-based techniques.
Presented by: Kultura Collective, Prosserman JCC, Toronto Holocaust Museum, UJA Federation of Greater Toronto, and theatre dybbuk
Programming Partners: CANVAS, The Azrieli Foundation, the Covenant Foundation
Promotional partners: Museum of Jewish Montreal, Niv Magazine, the CJN, Koffler Arts and the Harold Green Jewish Theatre Company
theatre dybbuk
theatre dybbuk creates provocative new works that blend physical theatre with poetry and music for exciting, utterly singular live events. The company explores the rich world of Jewish history, building lyrical performances that illuminate universal human experience for contemporary audiences. With an in-depth development process that can range from a few months to three years, Artistic Director Aaron Henne builds each piece with a cast of dedicated professional actors, designers, musicians, and scholars. The resulting works, from the dark and visceral dance theatre of cave… a dance for lilith to the shadowy and immersive hell prepared: a ritual exorcism inspired by kabbalistic principles, performed within a dominant cultural context, are challenging and beautiful to behold.
