Lesley Telford is a Vancouver-based choreographer who has returned to her hometown after a career in Europe spanning 20 years. Lesley has refined a choreographic approach that combines impulse-based physicality and technical rigour with sensitivity to the minute relationships between performers themselves and between performers and their environment. She creates by building situations that can propel dancers into something they didn’t predict, exploring the body’s instinctive response systems. She often works with text and collaborates frequently with Barbara Adler.
“[Telford] has such a profound way of tapping into very deep recesses of our emotional and intellectual landscapes, Her physicality is very wonderful and very today. I think she’s a very exciting choreographer to watch as we go forward in this next generation of choreographers.”
