Landing

Free visual and physical creation workshop
March 29, 2025 from 10 am – 1 pm
The Registry Theatre – 122 Frederick St., Kitchener, ON

Join us for this exciting artistic exploration in visual and physical creation, facilitated by Vanguardia Dance Projects and Aanmitaagzi! Get ready to move and tap into a new way of creating, brush up on your existing skills, and develop new abilities in creation.

Landing is a workshop aimed at exploring and investigating the relationship between place, land, and our own landscapes. We will engage in creating small dances inspired by big questions: What are we moved by? How do we celebrate the multidimensionality of who we are and the multitude of ways we express ourselves?

This workshop activity is being hosted as part of the presentation of the dance theatre piece CONVERSATIONS: Hidden Stories, presented by MT Space as part of their 24-25 season. Get the chance to meet the artists behind the work and discover how the work was created.

The world premiere of CONVERSATIONS: Hidden Stories runs from March 27-30, 2025 at The Registry Theatre.

About MT Space:

Founded in 2004 by Lebanese-Canadian director, actor, and dancer Majdi Bou-Matar, MT Space (Multicultural Theatre Space) is a platform for all artists that have felt marginalized, racialized, and displaced. Centralizing marginalized and racialized artists and stories, it was created to fill what seems to be a great void in a community of many different peoples.

For the past seventeen years, MT Space has been fulfilling its mandate by creating, producing, touring, and presenting artistic work that reflects Canada’s cultural diversity. Since 2004, MT Space has become a conduit for internationally trained immigrants and newcomer professionals across all disciplines. It has grown from being a company that produces one show every year to an organization that brings culturally and socially relevant work from across the country and around the world to our community of Kitchener-Waterloo. MT Space challenges the preconceptions of theatre to create, produce, and present work that is accessible and affordable to low-income families while creating a space for Indigenous, immigrant, refugee, and marginalized voices to be heard.
