乌鸦传媒淭wilight is a diverse collection of classical and contemporary works,乌鸦传媒� she said.

乌鸦传媒淲hen I did this programming over a year ago, I asked all the choreographers to propose works around the theme of love. I think they乌鸦传媒檝e all come together beautifully, and I乌鸦传媒檓 very excited about this program.乌鸦传媒�

The first piece in the program is choreographed by Montreal-based Kunal Ranchod. Orlando said the piece uses classical ballet elements set to classical Indian music.

乌鸦传媒淚n this piece, the intricate rhythms of Indian classical music are juxtaposed with the lines and shapes of classical ballet,乌鸦传媒� she said.

The second piece was originally created for Ballet B.C. by Joe Laughlin but has since been adapted for Ballet Kelowna. Orlando said the piece was inspired by big productions like Swan Lake and Sleeping Beauty, but the choreography has a ballet-contemporary mix feel to it and explores the feeling of falling in love.

The last segment is a contemporary piece choreographed by Eva Kolarova.

乌鸦传媒淲ith Eva, her piece is a bit of a departure because she乌鸦传媒檚 really looking at the idea of loneliness and separation,乌鸦传媒� Orlando said.

Kolarova said she wanted to show the audience a different perspective on relationships.

乌鸦传媒淲hat I乌鸦传媒檓 curious about is how can we find a relationship first with ourselves before we go out and try to connect with other people?乌鸦传媒� she said.

乌鸦传媒淥ften, we are pressured by society. There乌鸦传媒檚 this pressure that says 乌鸦传媒榦h, you乌鸦传媒檙e alone. You need to go and find someone乌鸦传媒�. But I want to talk about the difference between loneliness and being alone.乌鸦传媒�

乌鸦传媒淏eing lonely, that乌鸦传媒檚 isolation, it乌鸦传媒檚 a social construct and it乌鸦传媒檚 us being withdrawn from the community乌鸦传媒� and it乌鸦传媒檚 unhealthy. But being alone, it乌鸦传媒檚 completely ok. It乌鸦传媒檚 actually important to be alone once in a while and to question who we are and take care of ourselves first.乌鸦传媒�

Kolarova said she hopes people will feel encouraged that while it乌鸦传媒檚 alright to be in a relationship, it乌鸦传媒檚 also alright to be alone.

乌鸦传媒淚 want people to be grateful for being alone because it乌鸦传媒檚 a time of exploration and it allows us to fully focus on ourselves. From there, you can find fullness, fill your heart and you can have a beautiful relationship with other people.乌鸦传媒�
