Your involvement and solidarity are the keys to the dance community’s sustainable recovery

by Regroupement québécois de la danse

Emmanuelle Lê Phan, Marie-Reine Kabasha et Victoria Mackenzie, dans le film Mami Origami, réalisé par Marites Carino et chorégraphié par Emmanuelle Lê Phan

“Joining the RQD means embracing movement and being part of a tight-knit community in which all the members, like the threads used to sew a sash, are important. It means joining our voices to create true strength in numbers. This unity is vital for the healthy and sustainable recovery of our sector.

For the past year and a half, our lives have been fraught with uncertainty, anticipation and a pressing need to put these extraordinary circumstances behind us. Our desire to create, dance and share with others grows from week to week. Managing change has become a daily challenge for the dance community. Individuals, organizations and institutions all have a role to play in addressing the issues that affect us collectively.”

> Read the message from RQD Co-Presidents Lük Fleury and Jamie Wright.
