The dance winds and unwinds through and around the public who are arranged in the round. Yarn is integrated into the choreography and weaves an architecture that links public and place to the dancer. While dancing, the yarn gets tangled in a large knot of bright colours, and we remember those who have knitted for us in our own family. We experience Tricoter (Tree-Ko-Tay) through play, curiosity, and exploration of belonging to a community.Tricoter Bébé or Knitting in English, is a delightful mix of colours, movement, sounds and texture that captures the imagination of babies. The performance is followed by a stay and play activity for the whole family.Catch Tricoter Bébé on:Thursday March 27 @ 10:00 amFriday March 28 @ 10:00 am
