About Dance//Novella
Dance//Novella (D//N) was founded in 2019 by Brandon Lee Alley and Racheal Prince. The collective was formed to create new dance works through cross-disciplinary partnerships and collaborations. D//N takes inspiration from the current social climate and challenges itself to find new and exciting ways to make dance more accessible for a wider audience. Brandon and Racheal are both former members of the world-renowned Ballet BC and draw inspiration and knowledge from their unique experiences while working with the company. Since its inception, D//N has created seven original works, the most prominent being “When The Walls Come Down”, a dance theatre performance that tells the story of Carolin Hébert. The work is performed in American Sign Language and utilises technology to make the experience equally accessible for the hearing and Deaf communities.
