The Uncertainty Project
Choreographer: Valerie Buddle
Dancers for the creation/premiere: Mellisha Richard Dawe, Emily Gualtieri, Emilie Tremblay Sound designer: James Pohotsky Music: Billy Holiday, John Tavener, Arvo Pärt, Steve Reich Costumes: Valerie Buddle, Lynsey Billing Premiered: Studio 303 (independent production), Montreal, Canada, November 2008 Duration: 30 minutes The Uncertainty Project explores how global current events are founded on uncertainty. Liberty and security are principles often discarded in the face of disaster and tragedy. The piece reflects upon the human response to profound uncertainty and the inherent vulnerability and resiliency of the human character and combines a strong caliber of technique with a deep emotional understanding of the devastating events that have overcome our society to create a beautifully haunting piece that does not mirror these events directly but instead explores the events and sentiments that exist within their framework. |
