SUMMARY:Ballets Jazz Montréal Dance Me: The Music of Leonard Cohen
DESCRIPTION:Ballets Jazz Montréal brings Dance Me to Kitchener\, a bold and breathtaking tribute to the music\, poetry\, and spirit of Leonard Cohen.   Developed with Cohen’s personal blessing\, Dance Me transforms his legendary work into movement\, capturing the depth of his voice\, the wit of his lyrics\, and the emotional pull that made him an icon. Through explosive choreography\, impeccable technique\, and raw individual expression\, this powerful production brings Cohen’s world to life on stage.   Sexy\, moving\, and completely original\, Dance Me is more than a dance performance. It is a tour de force where music becomes physical\, and poetry takes the stage.
