Contemporary Kids: Duet for Children and Parents

Contemporary Kids: Duet for Children and Parents March 22 1-2:30 PM Heather Edwards Theatre Join us for a special CCKids workshop with W&M Physical Theatre. In this 90-minute experience, families will share movement, laughter, and a little creative adventure together while learning a contemporary dance duet created especially for a parent and child — playful in spirit, yet filled with quiet moments of trust and connection. Facilitated by Melissa Monteros and Wojciech Mochniej, with guest artist Nicole Charlton Goodbrand and her young student, the workshop gently guides participants through partnering, shared balance, and simple lifts. The duet is set to the luminous “Peace Piece” by Bill Evans. No dance experience is necessary. Please note: One parent or guardian per child is required for this workshop. Parents should feel comfortable lifting their child at moments during the dance; however, adaptations will be offered so everyone can participate. Our Free onsite Contemporary Kids programs invite children to learn about modern and contemporary art through unique and engaging art activities. For children ages 5-12. Maximum group of 20 children, with one guardian per child. Questions? Please visit our FAQ page. Contemporary Calgary Educational Programs are often photographed.
