We’re back in The Junction!

CORPUS is delighted to announce an exciting presentation in The Junction BIA! Every Saturday from September 3 to December 24, 2022, from 2 to 4 PM, CORPUS features a series of four FREE unique and engaging street performances at multiple locations in the Junction that combine movement and theatrical imagery with surrealist humour.

CORPUS’ internationally acclaimed street performances offer expressive and temporary street art in accessible locations for large and diverse audiences to enjoy. 

🗓️ Every Saturday starting at 2pm until December 24, 2022.
📍Starting at Heintzman St & Dundas St W. Roaming performances between Indian Grove and Quebec Avenue on Dundas St W.

We started in September with Divine Interventions. In October, we performed our show Nuit Blanche, then Camping Royale in November. Now, it’s time to enjoy the holidays! Grab a hot chocolate, dress cozy, and take your family to the magical Window Wonderland. Our Alpine Merry Sheep Choir is taking over the neighbourhood. Each performance has been carefully developed to combine contemporary dance, physical theatre, and comedy.

A description of each show is listed below:

• Divine Interventions: This outdoor processional performance is a playful response to the challenges of 2020 and beyond. Three goddesses descend from the heavens and tour the streets of Toronto, having received word that the world is in dire need of their help. 
• Nuit Blanche: Follow three insomniacs into an afternoon of broken sleep and waking dreams. Nuit Blanche will take you on a fantastical journey through the bizarre and unfamiliar territory of the sleeping subconscious.
• Camping Royale: A satire on colonialism and the privileged class, this performance features Queen Sophie-Charlotte and Queen Louise embarking on an absurd camping trip far away from court. Two worlds collide in this humorous and charming production that combines dance with object theatre. With references to well-known fairy-tales and hilarious audience interactions, Camping Royale is a signature work by CORPUS.
• The Alpine Merry Sheep Choir: Back by popular demand. A funny, heart-warming project with our shepherd and three of his most talented sheep singing Christmas carols.
