Overview

Montreal's Compagnie Catherine Gaudet arrives in Vancouver with their powerful new work Ode — a striking exploration of group-think conformity, relentless positivity, and cultural collapse. Following the success of Gaudet's acclaimed Les jolies choses, eleven performers move in lockstep formation, chanting the word "love" in a performance that shifts from anthemic to desperate, questioning the true cost of enforced happiness. A highlight of DanceHouse's 2026/27 season.
