Dance for Everyone, and Everyone for Dance!

        Welcome to the 22nd annual Dancing on the Edge festival!


















Founded in 1988 by the Firehall Theatre Society, the Dancing on the Edge festival incorporated in 1998 as its own society. Created in direct response to the local dance communities’ need for a supported place to perform their work, the festival has evolved into an annual event which presents on average thirty performances in mixed programs and full length works from over twenty different dance companies and choreographers from across Canada each festival. The festival is recognized for its support of new works through its presentations, commissions and residencies programs. Artists such as Paul Andre Fortier, Wen Wei Dance, the 605 Collective, Serge Bennethan, Peter Bingham, Amber Funk Barton, Lola MacLaughlin, Joe Laughlin, Karen Jamieson, Kokoro Dance, Chick Snipper, Alvin Tolentino and Brian Webb, Tara Cheyenne Friedenberg to name just a few have all benefitted from the DOTE’s commitment to dance and to bringing dance in all shapes and forms to our audiences.

We invite you to join us for the 22nd annual Dancing on the Edge festival as we push forward on another journey to create, inspire, and enthrall our audiences through dance.

Enjoy! 

July 8 through 18th, 2010.
