Halifax's 2nd annual Nocturne Festival is an event not to be missed!

On October 17th, Mocean and Halifax Dance will host an evening of exciting in-studio contemporary dance with performances by Mocean Dance, Kym Butler and Halifax Dance’s YOung COmpany in Studio Revolved. In this unique event, collaborating artists Kym Butler and the Halifax YOung COmpany will each occupy one of the Halifax Dance studios and Mocean Dance, a company-in-residence at Halifax Dance, will occupy two others. The public will travel from studio to studio to watch each performance, and will enjoy everything from contemporary dance to flamenco and tap. Each intimate space will reveal a different dance environment and a unique experience. A full revolution of this dance gallery will take 45 minutes and revolutions begin on the hour.

Performance times: 7pm, 8pm, 9pm
