Presented by Belle Spirale Dance Projects@bellespirale

August 17th, 18th, 24th and 25th  4pm-6pm

By-donation dinner after show!

The Dance Deck has always been and still is, a labour of love to not only support the independent arts community and audiences, but also to enrich our Commercial Drive Neighbourhood. While Belle Spirale Dance Projects, directed by Sylvain and Alexis, create and produce their own main stage creations throughout the year, The Dance Deck is a platform dedicated solely to the work of other artists.

This summer, our curation brings together some of Vancouver’s most exciting emerging creators, 2 acclaimed international artists, and a stunning work of opera, all presented up close and personal in our backyard. 

Come early to enjoy a drink from our by-donation bar before the show and following the show, we hope that you will join us for the post-show dinner, where you will have the opportunity to meet and mingle with the artists!

Our house, called “Casa Om,” has always been a place of regeneration and creativity, and with this in mind we have created an alternative and unique environment from which to share the arts with our community. We are Alexis Fletcher and Sylvain Senez and we are the directors, curators and producers of The Dance Deck.. Both professional dance artists, we have created an intimate, outdoor performance space in the backyard of our home in Vancouver, Canada, where acclaimed performers and creators have the chance to share their work at a grassroots level. We curate programs with room for dance, spoken word, classical music, and work from local singer-songwriters. As presenters we strive to give artists a platform where they have the freedom to experiment and share work that is meaningful to them.

Please purchase tickets online and in advance since we can only accommodate a limited audience and we would hate to turn you away at the door.

- Very limited amount of tickets sold at the door.

We thank you for purchasing tickets in advance and supporting our artists. All proceeds from the performances are given directly to our artists and artistic operations.
