The Pull of the Seasons – Margie Gillis – September 10, 2023 LiveEvents September 4, 2023 875 Festival Quartiers Danses presents The Pull of the Seasons The Pull of the Seasons “We are all Nature” – Margie Gillis. In this vivacious, mischievous, and light-hearted piece, choreographer Margie Gillis celebrates nature, in a heartfelt appeal to her native Quebec origins, where each season is more spirited and dazzling than the next. Although the “Belle Province” is ever present in this piece, the choreographer was also inspired by Hawaii. On the Hawaiian Islands, Nature is Queen, the mother of every living thing and the symbol of life. The piece is inspired by the legend of Pélé, the spirited goddess of volcanoes, dance and fire who created the Islands. It is happy, quick-tempered, fragile, formidable, incongruous, and treasured. Nature is personified by 10 dancers parading on stage to offer a sensitive and shimmering panorama. An ode to every dimension of Life and Nature, where humour meets audacity in a touching dance.
