Soft Currents
Part of Fluid Fest 2025, Bodies of Wonder
November 6
7:30-8:30 PM
Heather Edwards Theatre
Soft Currents is a performance work inspired by murmurations, which are enormous groups of starlings that twist and swirl across the sky in shape-shifting clouds. Ultimately, about social responsibility, the movement score works with text and sensory feedback in the body, asking the performers to find a collective sense of time while reacting to their environment. The audience witnesses a work of spontaneous eruptions, compositions and delights, alternating between collective unison and individual focus.
Soft Currents brings together artists from Vancouver, Edmonton and Calgary under the direction of Vanessa Goodman and Action at a Distance.
Presented at Contemporary Calgary as part of Free First Thursday Programming. Free with registration.
