Anthropic Traces, produced by Balancing on the Edge in association with A Girl in the Sky Productions and Thin Edge New Music Collective, is a large-scale production fusing contemporary music, circus, dance, theatre, mask, and multimedia.
In our current epoch, Anthropocene, we see the traces of human existence leaving an indelible mark in the history of the earth. Anthropic Traces showcases four original collaborative works whose artistic trajectory reflects on global issues affecting the current human condition. Each piece is unique in artistic approach and topic and yet they are all bound together by the threads of human impact.
Anthropic Traces features ten physical performers using experimental and traditional circus disciplines featuring hair hang, contortion, juggling, aerial plastic, invented apparatus paired with live performances of fresh and compelling compositions by trailblazing Canadian composers.
A relaxed performance will be available on Friday, July 29th at 2pm.
