A dance artist poses on a tan floor. They are wearing jeans, a dark jacket and white shoes and shirt. They have one leg bent up to the side, slightly lifted off the floor and their arms are outstretched-the right above their head and their left across their body, pointing towards the right. They are looking directly at the camera.

Performance | Discover Dance! series

VanVogueJam

Ballroom culture emerged in the 1960s, birthed from Black, Latinx, Trans and Queer communities, and has exploded into a countercultural phenomenon. Ballroom’s many categories include Vogue – a highly stylized competitive form which demands symmetry, precision and grace – and its spirit of joyful extravagance is rooted in defiant resistance to oppression. Curated by VVJ founder Ralph Escamillan, the program will feature local performers bringing their own work from the runway to the stage, while honouring the history of Ballroom Culture: Posh Gvasalia Basquiat (Ralph Escamillan), Mother Ivy Andromeda (Ivy Wilson) and Phoenix 007 (Juan Alcuitas Imperial).
