the soft spaces

- - -

'the soft spaces’ is an original, vibrant, hybrid dance/theatre performance. An examination of self-image, gender roles, defence mechanisms and growing up queer on Salt Spring Island, the piece seeks to uncover, explore and inhabit the soft spaces in life — wherever we may find them.

A digital, work-in-progress excerpt of the longer piece in development was offered at the Belfry's SPARK 2021. The project is currently apart of the Belfry Theatre's New Incubator Projects and is poised to continue its development in 2021.
