Pledge to make a difference, together.
Winnipeg's Contemporary Dancers is Canada's oldest and one of its most respected modern dance companies. Formed in 1964 by Rachel Browne, WCD grew by the mid-70's to encompass the School of Contemporary Dancers, an apprentice program, a subscription series and touring on a national and international level. Tedd Robinson established the first Canadian Modern Dance Festival in the 1980's. After falling on hard times in 1990, the company has rebounded now to a state of financial stability, a core of 5 dancers and national touring once again on the menu. In two years, WCD will be celebrating its 50th Anniversary!
