About The Future Memory Heartbreak Junction "Next time you're having a dark night of the soul, you might want to have Sasha Ivanochko's number on speed dial... Ivanochko is a masterful performer who's not afraid to confront demons head on, or challenge her viewers by taking them everywhere from heaven to hell. "a remarkable, emotionally naked portrait... one of the finest works WCD (Winnipeg's Contemporary Dancers) has presented in recent seasons.." |

About Heaven "Choreographer Sasha Ivanochko has crossed the dance golden mile with her new trio Heaven which is performed nude and in silence. What a choreographer strives for is to detail character and relationships, not through mime and gesture, but through movement. While Heaven is an abstract piece, one can read volumes into Ivanochko’s post-modern choreography. It is a work of a mature and assured dancesmith. “Heaven, Ivanochko’s first full-length choreography, is quite clearly sixty minutes of ecstasy for the performers onstage and for the audience privy to the work.” About “Is this love?” “If there is rumbling inside this woman, there's also something impenetrable about her, and indeed this work (Is this love?) seems contained and reserved. And even though nothing boils over, something is brewing. In the final moments of the piece, Ivanochko skips herself in circles as the lights fade to blackness. It's as if she has been presenting the strengthening of the body, the freeing of its channels. It's a private journey and, as it happens, a deeply felt public rite.” About Sasha Ivanochko "Sasha Ivanochko is so damned expressive, you could sell tickets to watch her cross the street." “warrior-like in her intensity” - Susan Walker, Toronto Star “Sasha Ivanochko’s high-impact dancing is like a lightening bolt.” - The Globe and Mail, April 2001 “… the remarkable Sasha Ivanochko… exquisitely articulating, through finely honed gesture, the depths of feeling in her soul." - The Globe and Mail, March 2001 “Ivanochko is brilliant (in “Brute”)… suggesting a tension between wanting to be airborne and the countervailing force of lumpish earth.” - Keith Garebian, Stage and Page Website “Sasha Ivanochko… takes over the stage with her soul.” - Phyllis Goldman, Allbusiness.com “Sasha Ivanochko… is a graceful, lots-behind-the-eyes, power-house of a dancer.” - Shena Wilson, The Dance Insider
