DanceHouse Premieres Dada Masilo’s The Sacrifice and Reveals 2023/24 Season

As DanceHouse announces its 2023-2024 season including six exciting performance, it readies for the final presentation in its 15th Anniversary season. DanceHouse presents the exhilarating North American premiere of Dada Masilo’s The Sacrifice, May 5 and 6, 2023 at 8pm at the Vancouver Playhouse. Inspired by Igor Stravinsky’s The Rite Of Spring, South Africa’s award-winning choreographer Masilo roots her powerful rendition in the rituals, rhythms, and sounds of Botswana. Together, the cast of ten dancers and four musicians interacts to explore the intricate symbiosis of community, sacrifice, and renewal in a riveting fusion of Tswana, the traditional dance of Botswana, and contemporary dance performed to a live original score.

Dada Masilo's The Sacrifice Dance Factory Johannesburg 30 June 2021 Photograph: John Hogg “We’re thrilled to introduce Vancouver audiences to Dada Masilo’s innovative and intoxicating vision in The Sacrifice,” says Jim Smith, Artistic and Executive Director of DanceHouse. “Masilo combines the European heritage of The Rite of Spring with the uniquely rhythmic and expressive movements of Tswana to examine the universal cry of sacrifice for the greater good, and the need to give back to help something grow. It is a timely call to all of us.” Vancouver is the first North American stop in the highly acclaimed international tour of The Sacrifice. Following its DanceHouse performances, the production continues to Ottawa, Toronto, and the United States. Dada Masilo (South Africa), The Sacrifice, runs May 5 and 6, 2023 at 8pm at the Vancouver Playhouse, 600 Hamiliton.

Evaporative Body / Multiplying Body by Alan Schacher and WeiZen Ho

(Video)

“We were commissioned by The Keir Chorographic Award through Dancehouse to develop and present a 20 minute version of our project Evaporative Body / Multiplying Body to audiences in both Melbourne, at Dancehouse, and in Sydney, at Carriageworks. Working with a long sheet of mirror film we attempted to create a total choreography of space, light and the elements of body and sound. Fausto Brusamolino’s generative visuals responded to the movement of the reflective material and our bodies and Hirofumi Uchino’s live sound followed intercepted and bounced from the material itself. Inspired by ritual performances we have witnessed we wanted to acknowledge all elements as equal including the particular potency of material matter. The shifting form of our performance was the choreography.“

I know a weird amount about British performance venues, for someone who’s never been to one. Actually, that’s not quite true. In March 2007, I spent a week in London with my mother, and that’s the only time I’ve ever been to that side of the Atlantic. The only time I’ve been overseas, aside from a couple of weeks in NZ in 2016. While we were there, we saw a production of Spamalot on St. Patrick’s Day. I do remember that being very cool. I remember hugely enjoying the musical, and walking through some theatre-y neighbourhood in London after the show ended, at midnight on St. Patrick’s Day and there were all these celebrations, and it seemed very exciting at the age of 16.

So I’ve technically been in a British venue, but I have no idea which one it was, and I remember very few specifics of it. Otherwise, I have never been in a British venue. But when I hear or see a recording of as how from a venue, I find it interesting to Google that venue, work out where it is and what it looks like and what they do there. Find it on Google Earth and look around. Because, I don’t know, you have to have a hobby, right? It’s something to do while I listen to comedy – to look at pictures of where that comedy was performed, and get a visual sense of it to match the audio.

I do know too many things about places I’ve never been. I feel like “places I’ve never been” is too romantic a way to phrase that, it suggests that I mean, like, the Pyramids of Egypt or something. Rather than the Nottingham Playhouse.

Here are some things I know about just a few British performance venues:

- Soho Theatre, London: I know very well what the stage looks like, because it’s where all the Soho Theatre specials on Amazon Prime were filmed, and I’ve seen most of those by now. At least three quarters of them, I think. Big deal venue, a number of comedians refer to doing a run at the Soho Theatre as a sign that they have “made it”. Small-ish, compered to a big theatre, at least, as far as I can tell from when they cut to the audience. Set up more like a club than a theatre with tables and a bar accessible. Really cool. I will make a pilgrimage someday.

- Leicester Square Theatre, London: Not in Leicester, specifically because some venues pick their names with the intention of confusing Canadians who don’t know about these places and are trying to organize their collections of comedy recordings by venue as well as by city, and they’ll keep accidentally filing the Leicester Square Theatre shows as being in the wrong city (yes I know Leicester Square is a place in London and that’s why it’s named that). Fairly large, looks cool and fancy on Google Images. Name of Richard Herring’s podcast.

- Battersea Arts Centre, London: Very fancy artsy place. Cool-looking building from the outside, according to Google Earth, and the inside, according to Google Images. Seems like a place where they might have opera or some shit. Apparently was on fire once. I would like to see it. That applies to all these, but particularly that one.

- Regent’s Park, London: Really fucking cool. I have seen many pictures, and I guess if you take them out of context, it’s just a park where they put seats. I have been to parks in Canada where they put seats, I guess it’s not that inherently cool. But the context makes it really fucking cool.

- Manchester Dancehouse: Looks very cool and artsy from the outside. Large-ish theatre with cool stuff on the walls from the inside.

- Union Chapel, London: Large fancy church where they sometimes put music and comedy shows. Fucking cool. I was a quite devout Anglican until I was 16, at which point I became very strongly not religious anymore, and I kind of hate how much my awe of fancy religious buildings did not disappear with the rest of my religious faith. I am still a sucker for an old church. This looks like a cool old church.

- Bloomsbury Theatre, London: Quite large, compared to most of these, I think. Décor that makes it look newer, according to pictures. Part of a college.

- Pleasance Theatre, London: Cool-looking place, from the inside and the outside. Seems to have multiple rooms, some with bleacher-like seating and some with tables and stuff. The sort of decor that would make you expect to see something vaguely artsy.

- Bill Murray, London: Gets called a comedy club/pub rather than a theatre, looks like a similar setup to the Soho Theatre in pictures. I’ve seen a few comedy specials that were recorded there, including the excellent Michael Legge ones, so I know what the stage looks like, though there weren’t a lot of cuts to the audience to show the rest of the room. Host a thing called Angel Comedy. Seems to be relatively cool and alternative-ish in terms of the content they host.

- The Old Vic, London: Have that “in the round” thing where the audience is everywhere. It’s where the Tree video was filmed, so that gives a very good look at what it’s like.

- Camden Roundhouse, London: Circular building, also has the thing where the audience sits on all sides. Looks fucking cool on the inside, wooden structures and stuff.

- Hammersmith Appollo, London: Big theatre where Live at the Apollo is filmed. A lot of the more mainstream comedy specials/DVDs get filmed there as well. Large, puts the comedian’s name in lights, that sort of thing.

- Just the Tonic, Nottingham: Comedy club with a bunch of cool lights as its interior décor. Less exciting building from the outside, which probably makes sense as it appears to be a less exciting city. But it looks pretty cool inside.

- Traverse Theatre, Edinburgh: Cool building from the outside. Relatively standard theatre from the inside.

- Summerhall, Edinburgh: Big arts complex, large old building from the outside (I am just a sucker for all old buildings, which I hope is the cause of why I still find churches so cool, and not some subconscious lingering awe of the religion that I left behind years ago). I think it might also have that round thing from The Old Vic, but I might be making that up. Looks vibrant and varied on the inside.

- Monkey Barrel, Edinburgh: More club-like venue, that I think hosts some of the more alt-like things at the Edinburgh Festival. Stone walls with murals on them, looks cool in pictures.

- Gilded Balloon, Edinburgh: A cow was taken apart on stage there on August 26, 2003, and the world has not been the same since. Honestly though, I do know a fair amount about this venue, for a number of reasons that do include obsessively Googling the cow incident to see if I could find out more about it. I also know about the Gilded Balloon because it featured heavily in the Tim Minchin documentary Rock ‘n’ Roll Nerd, where Karen Koren, who owns the Gilded Balloon, brought his first show to Edinburgh. The documentary showed a lot of that venue, including backstage and probably more shots of the dressing room than we needed (specifically, more shots than we needed of Tim Minchin not wearing clothes in the dressing room), so I know that building quite well.

Used to be in a neighbourhood called Cowgate until it burned down in 2002, and was rebuilt nearby. This is why I sometimes refer to The Incident there as Cowgate, even though Cowgate didn’t actually happen in Cowgate; it happened in the rebuilt version of the venue in 2003.

Host Late ‘n’ Live, this late-night thing that runs until like 3:30 AM at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and that’s the other reason I know a lot about this venue. Because I’ve seen every YouTube clip I could find of old Late ‘n’ Live nights, and have seen the 2012 documentary that BBC Scotland did about Late ‘n’ Live, and obviously the venue featured heavily there. They livestreamed several nights of Late ‘n’ Live at the 2022 Edinburgh Festival, and I have downloaded those, but have not watched them, because something so recent is just too close to what I could see if I actually went there in real life, and that makes me depressed about the fact that I don’t have the money to go there in real life. Soon. Hopefully. I’m working on it.

- The Stand, Edinburgh: Cool club-style venue that hosted Stewart Lee’s Alternative Comedy Experience TV show, so I know a fair bit of what it looks like from that. It’s where Daniel Kitson went to host Honourable Men of Art in 2006 and 2008, when he specifically wanted to rebel against the drunken mess of Late ‘n’ Live, setting The Stand up as the cooler, nerdier alternative to the mainstream Gilded Balloon. I have no idea if it’s really like that, but Daniel Kitson and Stewart Lee both considered the Edinburgh Stand as the place to go for alternative comedy, and they’re two of the people with the most credibility in proclamations about alternative comedy, so that must mean something. The Stand is also where Daniel Kitson performed most of his Edinburgh stuff for the first 10-ish years of his career, his solo shows as well as his collaborative shows like Honourable Men of Art. The first 10-ish years of his career was when Daniel Kitson was most unapologetically pretentious and picky about all parts of his gigs, including the venues, suggesting that The Stand has some cred in terms of being small and cool and the right room for great comedy.

This all applies to The Stand in Edinburgh, but there’s another one in Glasgow where Frankie Boyle’s been involved and Susie McCabe compares regularly, so overall it just seems like a really cool multi-city Scottish thing where the coolest comedy happens and I’d love to make a pilgrimage there someday.

Sorry, never mind, scratch that. Scratch all of that. The above paragraph is what I thought, until recently. Apparently The Stand is a place that decided to platform a transphobe, and then not, possibly because transgender comedian Bethany Black pulled her shows from it due to not wanting her transgender fans to fund hate against themselves by paying money to The Stand for her tickets (entirely understandably), but then they brought the transphobe back due to legal threats. Because, you know, the whole “You can’t force people or private businesses to do stuff they don’t want to, telling me to use your preferred pronouns is compelled speech and forcing a baker to make a gay wedding cake is fascism” thing only goes applies to one side of the political spectrum, and if a venue decides not to give out their space for bigotry, they can be legally forced to change that decision.

So that’s what that is now. Put a strike through all that other stuff, it’s now the venue that’s known for transphobes. I mean, it was probably lots of other stuff in between, this disappointment is what happens when my most recent information on a venue comes from Stewart Lee’s TV show that aired in 2013-2014 (a TV show for which he had Andrew Lawrence record material, if you want a sign of how much the comedy landscape has changed since then – I have a theory that finding out his material had been cut from that show may have contributed to Lawrence throwing away all his credibility on the respectable side of comedy, just because those two things coincide so closely). We have to be up to date about things. It’s not the cool venue that hosted Daniel Kitson’s Chocolate Milk Gang-based alt-comedy nights anymore. I only see it that way because I’m about fifteen years behind in the comedy I follow most closely. It is a bit weird to be fifteen years behind in how I think of comedy; sometimes I find myself having opinions on the Mark Watson Advertises Cider Controversy and then remember that no one has cared since 2011. Anyway, The Stand is not those cool things anymore, it’s now a place for transphobes (I realize Glasgow and Edinburgh are different places, but as far as I can tell those two locations are owned by the same people). Things always turn out to be a place for transphobes, don’t they? Nothing ever just stays cool, it’s always that you look a little closer, and then it’s a place for transphobes.

By the way, can I just say I think the term TERF is wildly overused? It stands for Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminist, and it’s a useful way to point out this one weird thing where people who have otherwise pro-woman views hate this one particular type of woman, and manage to twist the language of feminism into justifying it. Specifically, these people identify as “radical feminists”, and argue that the radical nature of their feminism means they want nothing to do with anyone born with a dick.

It’s a horrible, horrible thing, but it doesn’t describe your garden variety transphobe. I’m not sure it’s ideologically possible for any cis men to be TERFs, as the whole thing revolves around hating men so much that they can’t even stand to share space with women whom they consider to be men.

I’ve seen people describe Graham Linehan as a TERF, when that guy clearly hates cis women as well. Dave Chappelle cannot be on Team TERF just because he says he is; he’d have to also adopt a lot of other radical feminist views that I don’t think he wants to take on. And even most cis women who hate trans people are not radical feminists, they’re just transphobes. The vast majority of people who get called TERFs are just transphobes.

It doesn’t really matter; I don’t go around making this argument most of the time, because it’s not important. It’s a semantic argument and semantics aren’t really useful in this situation. But as a feminist, I don’t love hearing people describe bigots with an acronym that contains the word “feminist”, so I do think there’s at least a bit of substantial merit behind the idea of not granting them that title. Germaine Greer is a TERF. Ricky Gervais is just a transphobe. Both very bad, but different things. It’s bullshit semantics, but surely there has to be a better system than one in which we describe Ricky Gervais as a radical feminist, which is technically what we’re saying if we call him a TERF.

Well, that’s what happened in this post. I tricked people into thinking it was a post about comedy venues, but really it was a post about my views on some stuff people are mad about on Twitter. This sort of thing will continue until I’m no longer as intensely in need of distractions.

"Oh

Oh oh oh oh

I can't eat I can't sleep

I think I'm in too deep

What you do to me

Should I show should I hide

Baby I got my pride

But I can clearly see

You turn me all around

Inside me inside you're turning me round

So won't you turn me all around

Inside me inside you're turning

I said don't turn me all around

I said don't turn me all around

I said don't turn me all around

No no no no no

Oh don't turn me all around

All around

I see us and I pray

Hoping you'll find a way to me to me

I will wait all night long

baby don't get me wrong

I want you say you want me

But don't turn me around honey

Oh don't turn me all around

Oh don't turn me all around

If I could turn you around

Don't you turn me all around

Oh oh don't you turn me all around

Oh oh oh

Don't you turn me on oh

Oh

Oh turn it around turn it around

Turn it around turn it around

Turn it around turn it around

And don't you turn it around

Turn it around

Turn it around turn it around

So don't you turn me all around

Oh no no no

Don't you turn me all around baby

Turn me turn me turn me turn me"
