From novels to dance, music to multidisciplinary mashups—Rough Cuts is where local artists test-drive new creations in a super low-tech setting. Rough Cuts #2 will feature:
Mintu Maria James
Raised in a family of professional dancers and training since age three, Mintu is Indian-born, Canada-based classical dancer specializing in Bharatanatyam and Kuchipudi styles. Mintu will be performing a Bollywood fusion piece with a mix of semi-classical Indian dance.
Sandra Kasturi
Mixed-race poet, fiction writer, book reviewer and former publisher Sandra Kasturi has garnered numerous awards for her writing, and is fond of red lipstick. G & Ts, and the movie Aliens. Sandra will read from her new, funny and fast paced first novel Medusa Gorgon, Lady Detective.
Wyatt Lamoureux
Writer, actor, script consultant and fledgling filmmaker Wyatt Lamoureux creates stories inspired by careers in emergency shelters, journalism, printing, and the service industry. Wyatt and two actors will read from his play Stuck, supported by visual images and followed by a brief video.
Nicole Malbeuf
Circus, physical theatre and visual artist Nicole Malbeuf is creating a book! While recovering from hip replacement surgery, Nicole is working on a children’s story/art book adaptation of her circus-theatre performance piece Hen Called Freedom, a draft of which she will read from accompanied by projected images from the live show.
Lynn Teatro
Lynn Teatro is a writer, facilitator, and listener whose work explores the ethics and ecology of attention. Listening Is an Ecosystem is a work-in-progress that explores listening as a whole-body, relational experience combining spoken word, embodied stillness, and intentional pacing, inviting the audience into a heightened state of noticing; where listening becomes participatory rather than passive.
