Founded in Montreal in 2002, RUBBERBAND is an organization dedicated to creation and production
with the mission of supporting the research of choreographer Victor Quijada.
It wishes to be recognized worldwide for its innovation, its significant contribution in dance, and for its role in the development of a
new style inspired by break, classical ballet, and dance theatre.
RUBBERBAND‘s new creation, Reckless Underdog, takes the company’s work of the past twenty
years further than ever.
Bigger than ever, the show features 12 dancers who come together in a three-act choreography. Each part offers a unique
proposition; three distinct universes, in terms of stage space, aesthetic choices and music.
The first, inspired by classical ballet, takes place in a circumscribed and luminous environment where the rules of pas de deux are
redefined.
The second, more experimental, distorts certain theatrical codes within a colored space and confronts the bodies with an abstract and
minimal approach to movement.
The last one deconstructs the practice of break cypher, in a dark, oppressive, but festive atmosphere.
For Victor Quijada, artistic director and choreographer, a new era is opening for the company. Reckless Underdog promises to take us on a lyrical and figurative dissection of movement, boldly exploring the limits of time and space.
After the show, you will be able to attend a Q&A session with Victor Quijada.
