DanceHouse brought in a powerful, innovative dance company, Winter Guests for their final offering of the season. Winter Guests fits the mandate of DanceHouse, with its internationally acclaimed repertoire of works that demand the attention of the audience. Story, Story, Die is a case in point. Pushing the boundaries of modern dance, artistic director of Winter Guests, Alan Lucien Oyen, has fashioned a 90 minute program that incorporates theatre, mime, lighting and voice.
Oyen has a strong background in theatre which is very apparent in Story, Story, Die with his use of props and lighting to dramatize the vignettes he creates to tell the story he wants to impart to the audience. Although Story, Story, Die is a one act, 90 minute piece, Oyen uses the drama of light and the sudden absence of it to delineate the vignettes within the piece. He keeps the audience engaged with voice as well, sometimes spoken as a stream of conscience and sometimes a voice speaking blues lyrics to impart a message. “I’m going to take care of you, How’s your life treating you, Are you happy with it, How much money do you make, Do you have a house, there’s no me, I sense something could be troubling you” are all phrases incorporated into the message of Story, Story, Die.
It is a dark message made more apparent with the dim overall lighting and the somber clothing of the dancers. Seven dancers are entrusted with the task of conveying a message that is filled with angst, self-loathing and doubt, desires for inclusion, betrayal/belittling. It is an inhospitable world of gun shots and killing. They dance with technical precision, synchronizing their moves to voice, light and each other. The mime and marionette moves laced into the choreography are taut with timing. The intense synchronization required by the dancers was riveting to watch. The discipline and emotional integrity the dancers gave to the program was rewarded by an enthusiastic audience who stood and clapped in thanks to the dancers.
DanceHouse has once again excelled in their mandate to bring thought provoking, innovation in dance to its audience.
You've heard of pet hotels. How about a human hotel where the cat in charge decides if he wants to greet you or lounge around in an empty banquet hall, arching his neck to show off his Goyard collar?
But you're not totally ignored as there are enough humans to take care of your needs in the quietly elegant Hotel Bristol on Paris's chi-chi Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honore.
Close enough to the main drag of Champs Elysee without being part of the touristy hustle and bustle, Le Bristol has long been the hangout of the discreet who's who. But it has also attracted enough well-heeled regular folk who liked it enough to vote it the best hotel in France in Trip Advisor Traveller's Choice 2014. Classified as a "Palace Hotel", Le Bristol served its first guests in 1925 when owner Hippolyte Jamet set out to create Paris's most luxurious hotel in keeping with its gentrified surroundings where saddle maker Hermes and dressmaker Jean Lanvin set up their first shops. As more big fashion names moved in, Rue du Fauborg Saint-Honore became the ultra-luxe street in Paris, while Le Bristol became a magnet for celebrities such as Kim Novak and Charlie Chaplin.
In 1978, the hotel was acquired by the German Oetker family - they of the popular frozen Dr Oetker pizzas. Since then, it's been through several makeovers and extensions, upping the luxury ante each time. It's also changed cute mascots - from the fluffy garden rabbit named Hippolyte to current pampered house cat Fa-raon, who's a hot favourite with both kids and adults.
He is of course not the only celebrity in the hotel. Helming the three Michelin-starred restaurant Epicure is Chef Eric Frechon who pulls off elaborate meals for those who want the full dining experience. If not, follow the elegant lunch crowd to the one-starred 114 Faubourg, where Chef Eric Desbordes shows off proficient brasserie fare such as creamy artichoke soup with minced black truffle and foie gras.
But what really seals the deal is when you finish dinner at a fancy French restaurant and ask them to call you a cab to take you back to the hotel. When the maître d asks where you're staying, you can see his eyebrows rise conspicuously as he then smiles approvingly. And when your cab pulls up in front of the hotel entrance, you can truly say you've arrived - in more ways than one.

Riudaura is a small town with 425 inhabitants at the beginning of a valley.
It has no public buildings apart from a church and the town hall square since the school is confined to the lower floor of a house. The town wanted a new public space for its cultural, leisure and sports activities to be built on a site at the entrance to the town, topographically in a depression opposite the church.
Given these special conditions in terms of both the social context as well as the site itself, the challenge consisted in designing a single space for such a complex programme. The new building captures its environment. It is laid out as a horizontal line that accompanies, displays and underscores the vertical event of the church. The transversal alignment frees up and typifies a new square at the front. It is also sited to oversee the play, dance and sports zone. The building permits a link betwen the two spaces through dark, deep, recurrent gateways.
