Tangente - Living Rooms Workshop

Are you planning to see Piece of Mind: Parkinson’s at Tangente (Montréal)? We invite you to participate in a research workshop centered on the work Piece of Mind: Parkinson’s to explore how the performing arts (dance, music, theater, circus) can help us experience and understand Parkinson’s disease.

On the agenda: interactive stations and technological installations will immerse you in our world, followed by a moment of reflection and creative sharing to explore together what made an impression on you and how. You’ll be asked to share your experience through words, images, and gestures. You’ll also be invited, if you wish, to a 30- to 45-minute individual interview—in person or online—immediately after the workshop or the following day.
