seated woman / femme assise, choreographed by Marie-Josée Chartier, premiered in 1990 for the And/Or Festival in the Dancemakers studio theatre, performed by Carmen Jerome. The piece will be remounted by choreographer Marie-Josée Chartier, for dancer Sylvie Bouchard, as part of Older & Reckless #30 in Toronto this November (curated by Claudia Moore, MOonhORsE Dance Theatre).

 

Marie-Josée Chartier choreographs for the Ryerson dancers. For this production, Marie-Josée remounts parts of fifty-one pieces of silver, a full evening work that was commissioned by Serge Bennathan in 2002 for the company Dancemakers and recipient of the Dora Mavor Moore Award for Outstanding Choreography.
 

Marie-Josée just returned from Philadelphia, where she restaged the production of Svadba-Wedding (originally directed by Michael Cavanagh), an opera by Ana Sokolović presented by Opera Philadelphia for their new series Opera in the City. Originally created by Queen of Puddings Music Theatre in Toronto, a company for which Marie-Josée has been associated for 13 years, Svadba received its American premiere to four sold-out performances with oustanding reviews.
