We're Back! SEPT 6-8/ 13-15 @5pm: “LONG'S HILL WALK: I LIVE(D) HERE" is a neighbourhood walking tour by Louise Moyes DOCUDANCE, told through those who live and have lived in the Long’s Hill area, in historic downtown St. John’s Newfoundland. In 2014, crisis struck. The Neighbourhood was divided as to what to do. Through stories, photographs, interviews and dance , Long’s Hill Walk reveals our hopes and fears, homes and businesses, our public spaces - and where they intersect. This work brings us face-to-face with the issues that shape a community and how dance, and the act of walking, can express the resilient nature of its people. FOR TICKETS: $25; EMAIL: docudance@gmail.com

"Brilliant and unforgettable... unique and insightful.... I continue to be awed at Long’s Hill: I Live(d) Here by Louise Moyes Docudance - so warm, friendly and strangely hospitable... As we moved through Tessier Park, onto Tessier Place, up Carter’s Hill, down Young Street, through an alleyway, and back onto Long’s Hill, our group resembled a small parade.

Though it is a short road, Long’s Hill has a lengthy and colourful history, and Louise Moyes is going above and beyond in serving and preserving her neighbourhood... by combining community spirit and dance – undeniably the highlight of the Festival." Wendy Rose, The Telegram

GLOBE AND MAIL St. John’s Women Review:

"Moyes’ interdisciplinary fusion of film and live dance is deliciously droll – her witty brand of docu-dance defines the Newfoundlander’s penchant for self-deprecating humour....As a mover, Moyes is clean, precise and lyrical, with a filigreed delicacy of gesture.The dance sections are clever. ..This richly layered piece is a delight from start to finish,and Lori Clarke’s and Delf Hohmann’s music captures the gentle irony of the work."
