The event will feature BC born and NYC soloist modern dancer, Madelaine Burnett, in a performance, discussion and masterclass. “I prioritize using dance to share messages and spread awareness. From joyous to difficult subjects, each can be honoured with beauty and grace and I believe that to be the artists’ purpose.” says Madelaine. “In honour of Cancer Awareness Month, the performance will include a solo dedicated to cancer patients by New York modern dance company, Alison Cook Beatty Dance, with all proceeds to the BC Cancer Foundation.” Madelaine is a B.C. born dancer who has been mentored by legendary dancers from Alvin Ailey and who performed for Martha Graham Dance Company’s Graham2 before joining Alison Cook Beatty Dance.
