Evolutions

“The point is Love; the point is Transformation and Wisdom; the point is Touching the Source and the Soul of others.” – Margie Gillis

The first show in Crimson Coast Dance Society’s 22nd season welcomes the extraordinary dance artist and Nanaimo favourite, Margie Gillis.

Evolutions is an evening of dances featuring the legend herself, grand dame of dance, Margie Gillis, alongside accomplished dance artists interpreting gender re-imagined selections of her solo repertoire that span four decades. Evolutions represents Gillis’ legacy – the passing on of knowledge, skill and insights, and the gifting of solos she created specifically for herself to next generation artists – men and women – who will evolve and share them according to their own lived experiences of life, loss, love and resilience.
