We are so pleased to have DynamO Théâtre’s unique blend of dazzling acrobatics, vivid imagery and creative storytelling on our Mainstage this month to kick off our 2012-2013 season.

L-R: Marie-Ève Lafontaine, Frédéric Nadeau, Hugues Sarra-Bournet, An¬dréanne Joubert in a scene from I on the Sky; Set Design (concept) by Yves Simard, Set, Costume & Prop Design by Pierre-étienne Locas, Lighting Design by Sylvain Letendre; Photo Credit: Robert Etcheverry

I on the Sky tells the story of a young woman’s journey of exile and isolation, where hope for a better life is found in the strength of others. To help prepare you to see this exciting production, here’s a sneak peek into our Study Guide with some questions you can explore with your classmates, teachers, family and friends:

•       How can an acrobatic movement describe a feeling or an emotion?           

•       Why might a director choose movement rather than words as a means of expression? 

•       Discuss the following statement: “Running away often boils down  to escaping something.” What prompts people to want/need to escape their situation?
