Title
From the Community to the World: Ukrainian Dance in Montréal
Abstract
Ukrainian staged dance is a popular element of Ukrainian culture. The author points out that Ukrainian dance in Montreal has been influenced strongly by the spectacular dance model, which was associated most strongly with the state sponsored dance companies coming from the former Soviet Union. The author investigates why these rather anti-Soviet communities in Canada, including Montreal, would choose a Soviet style to represent Ukrainians? And why would Québécois choreographers repeatedly choose to add Ukrainian dance into their international dance repertoire?
