Sarah Huttoninstagram is @sarah_huttonSarah Hutton was born and raised in Hanna, Alberta where she discovered her love for movement at the age of five. Sarah continued her early dance education throughout southern Alberta in jazz, tap, and hip-hop and began to choreograph on herself and other students. She moved to Vancouver in 2013 to continue her training, joining the Source Dance Company under the direction of Joanne Pesusich. In 2016, she was chosen for a scholarship at EDAM Dance under Peter Bingham, where she studied contact improvisation. Her new curiosities led her to Modus Operandi where she graduated in 2020 under the direction of Tiffany Tregarthen, David Raymond, and Kate Franklin. She has performed for creators Paras Terezakis (Kinesis Dance), Shay Kuebler (Radical System Art), Vancouver Fashion Week, Julie-anne Saroyan (Dances for a Small Stage), Kyle Toy, Heather Dotto, and Joanne Pesusich. She is also currently an apprentice with Shay Kuebler (Radical System Art). Sarah continues to explore her own choreographic practice. Throughout the past four years, her choreography has been performed by the training program The Source Dance Company. Most recently her work has been performed at The Dance Centre’s Christmas Party in 2019. Hannah MeyersDriven by rhythms, patterns, colours and a heavy dose of romanticism. Likes to mismatch materials, modes of performance, theories, and histories. Recently, this has meant using found sound as a dialogue for a short video installation (Ordinary Orchestra, NTS Art Apart), board games as a tool to critique colonialism and capitalism (New Societies, Re:Current Theatre), poetry with exercise (The Albertine Workout, SFU), tap dancing through adaptations of adaptations (notnothamletmachine, THEATRECORPS), and rice crispy cereal on vanilla ice cream. A co-founder of Lo-Fi Spectacle Club; a nascent performing arts collective as idealistic as they come. A pandemic graduate (Simon Fraser University Bachelor of Fine Arts Honours in Theatre Performance). Walks and works on the stolen ancestral lands of the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), Stó:lō and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) and xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) Nations. Walks and works on these lands as a queer, white, cisgender woman. Walks and works with contradiction. Mismatching and subverting form is both a proclivity and a political assertion. Jaqueline Ritter Jaqueline Ritter is a graduate of SFU’s BFA program in Contemporary Dance. Having started ballet classes at the age of three, Jaqueline has committed her entire life to exploring ways to express herself through movement. During her time at SFU, Jaqueline has had the privilege of training under and performing in works by Judith Garay, Rob Kitsos, Chick Snipper, Vanessa Goodman, Yossi Berg and Oded Graf Dance Theatre (Israel), and many others. Jaqueline will soon be launching a choreographic career of her own, with an interest in creating pieces that appeal to her audiences’ emotional and kinesthetic senses of empathy.
