What We Do
Now taking final bookings for “A Celtic Prayer” – email us today!
Described as startling, arresting, and beautiful, Poetry in Motion is a unique performance collaboration that debuted in Vancouver to great acclaim from the Christian arts community. Carolyn Currey and Rachel Starr Thomson tell stories and present themes by juxtaposing two powerful art forms: ballet and the spoken word.
A typical Poetry in Motion performance is 10-25 minutes long and incorporates two to four songs, poems or narrations, and original choreography. Performances create a “sacred space” by inviting viewers and listeners into an arts experience that will uplift and challenge them. Poetry in Motion performances can be geared for secular or Christian audiences.
Where We’re Going
Poetry in Motion goes on the road from September – October, 2011. We will be travelling throughout the Maritime provinces. Contact us today to book for your church, school, or event!
We will also be available for all areas in southern Ontario as well as Detroit, MI and Buffalo, NY starting January 2011. Be in touch and we’ll make plans to visit you!
How This Works For You
Because a Poetry in Motion performance requires less space and time than a full-length ballet, this can be an excellent way to incorporate Soli Deo Gloria Ballet into an existing event or smaller performance space such as a coffeehouse, community concert, or festival.
We will be offering arts workshops for schools during this tour. Workshops may include any or all of the following: ballet technique, ballet history, choreography, fitness, creative writing, and anatomy. Choose one workshop or combine several to give your students the full arts experience
