Toronto Dance Theatre

Returning to the Playhouse following their stunning performance in 2014, contemporary dance company Toronto Dance Theatre is back to celebrate its 50th anniversary season. This mixed program features five masterworks from Artistic Director Christopher House’s career, ranging from the kinetic classic Vena Cava to contemporary creations Echo Dark 1 and Martingales.

Since it was founded in 1968, Toronto Dance Theatre has produced a unique body of Canadian choreography, and has influenced the artistic development of dancers, choreographers and other collaborators from across the country. Since House became the company’s artistic director in 1994, Toronto Dance Theatre has collaborated with international artists, bringing new perspectives to Canada’s dance scene.
