The Harbourfront Centre presents Nigel Chamock’s Children, a dance of “ecstasy and agony” as two people try to “stay together for the sake of their kids.” The second piece of the evening, A Few Minutes of Lock, includes excerpts of three Édouard Lock duets.

Performed by Canadian dance icons Louise Lecavalier and Fou Glorieux, this event is not to be missed. Lecavalier has not performed in Toronto since beginning her own dance company in 2006; at 50 years of age, the dancer brings a unique perspective to her work, examining the beauty and relevance of dance through the lens of time.

Tonight’s performance starts at 8pm and is the first of four shows. As such, the performance will be followed by an Opening Night Reception at the Watermark Irish Pub and Restaurant (located in the Queen’s Quay Terminal). Tickets for the show are $45. To purchase tickets and for more information on the evening’s performance, go to the Harbourfront Centre’s website.
