On stage, Danièle Desnoyers stands behind a table covered in creative notebooks and other objects. Her goal: to reveal her approach to dance and the choreographic process. A live video projection allows viewers to see the contents of the notebooks. Seven dancers in the space perform excerpts from UNFOLD | 7 perspectives.
