Contemporary Dance Co. the response. Returns to Shadbolt Centre for the
Arts 

BURNABY, BC - Spaces. Bodies. Music.  A melting pot of ordinary, random
ideas and pure movement, the response's Workspace is the chance to
witness the evolution of the company's repertoire in a fun and gutsy
performance, as two new works are woven together into one tapestry of
expression - a woman's quartet and a duet for a man and a woman.
Dedicated to pushing the physical and emotional boundaries of dance, the
response. seeks to challenge its members with original creation and
commissioned works.  The inspiration for this company lies in the
ability of the human body, its capacity, its physical potential and its
emotional make-up.  The main focus is to investigate the possibilities
of fusing together the articulation and sophistication of contemporary
technique with the athleticism, dynamics and energy of urban dance and
culture.

After the exciting debut of this new company in 2008, Workspace presents
a window into what is inspiring Amber Funk Barton these days, as she
continues to explore the possibilities of fusing together contemporary
technique with the energy and dynamic of an urban aesthetic.  Favourite
songs, insomnia, skirts and a wall are just some of the ingredients
influencing Amber's anticipated new work that will stimulate and
entertain audiences with a truly unique performance experience.  the
response. is a reaction to the emotions we feel...to the music we listen
to... to the world that surrounds us...

again. She is one of the premiere modern dancers in Canada
and it is wonderful to be able to support this innovative and 
dynamic young artist.  Every time I see Amber, her work and 
artistry just blow me away!"
