End of the West
End of the West is a group of artists who met around a backyard fire and came to know each other through the stories we told, and the tales we made up. As an architect (Dave Thomas) a Bharatanatyam Dancer (Avanash), and a physical-theatre maker (Jacqueline Loewen), each of us brought different arts-languages to speak. As an Indiginous man, an Indian man, and a settler/Canadian woman, each of us bring different worlds to share. We connected over tales tall enough to see over the boundaries of our different lives, so we have made work that imagines beyond the boundaries of each of our traditional practices. Coming together, we’ve created trans-disciplinary Live Art, telling myths with the best tools that Space/Design, Movement/Live performance, and Dramaturgy/Theatre have to offer.
The culmination of this construction is building -and populating- a world which we wait expectantly for the audience to walk into.
