FE

A creative work travelling from Quebec

November 2, 2025 - 7:30 pm

The Annex, Vancouver

Duration: 30 min 

Directed by Mariem Valdes and choreographed by Niosbel Gonzalez, FE is performed by Valdes and Gonzalez. Original music is by Pepe Gavilondo and Erice, and lighting is by Valdes, Gonzalez, and Sophie Robert.

This performance follows Collapse after a 15-minute transition. No separate ticket is required.

 

Description

FE explores migration, uprooting, memory, nostalgia, and resilience. It conveys exile's emotional and physical impact, where movement becomes memory and rhythm expresses absence. Through powerful embodiment, it honors those who leave everything behind but carry strong roots and enduring hope for the future.

Please note: This performance includes strobe lighting effects.

In the spirit of storytelling, we pause to honour this land's ancient and contemporary narratives. We stand upon the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.

Just as we celebrate the diverse voices of immigrant and refugee artists, we recognize the First Peoples who have woven this place's first and enduring tales. Their stories are a testament to resilience, creativity, and the power of community. As we come together from many corners of the world, may we always remember, respect, and learn from this land's stories.
