Fluency

choreographer: Peter Chin
Videography: Jeremy MimnaghCan one become Nicaraguan? Jamaican-born, Toronto-based artist Peter Chin answers that question with Fluency, a multidisciplinary piece developed during a stay in Latin America, imbued with his trademark finesse and humour. Over a two-year period, the choreographer, dancer, musician and four-time Dora Mavor Moore Award winner, together with videographer Jeremy Mimnagh, documented his sometimes comical efforts to learn Spanish and to integrate into a new culture. It all led to this very playful piece for Chin and four performers, an atypical progress report that lies somewhere between dance, theatre, video and a talk show.
"...when it comes to avant-garde art, Peter Chin walks the walk - and it's a pretty memorable strut. The renaissance man of the dance world is devoted to innovation" NOW Magazine, Toronto
