The weekend performances of Cuba's Malpaso Dance Company mark a final bow for Dance Victoria general manager Bernard Sauvé, who is transitioning into 'semi-retirement.'

When: Friday, April 28 and Saturday, April 29 The to-do list for Bernard Sauvé is becoming lighter by the day, which is good news for the general manager of Dance Victoria.

Sauvé is leaving on a high note, with performances on tap Friday and Saturday at the Royal Theatre from Cuba’s Malpaso Dance Company — the first-ever Victoria performances by the 11-member troupe, and the final ones for Dance Victoria in 2023 under the stewardship of Sauvé as general manager. The most widely toured Cuban dance company in North America, Malpaso’s local debut is representative of what Dance Victoria became under the guidance of Sauvé and former artistic director Stephen White, who retired in July 2022 after 22 years with the non-profit charitable society. Accessible, contemporary, and sustainable is how Sauvé described it.

He left Montreal for a position as a dancer with Vancouver’s Ballet B.C. in the late 1980s, somewhat unaware of the greater dance community out West. He never regretted the decision. In 2014, he landed at Dance Victoria. The company was carrying a deficit at the time, but Sauvé had experience in arts administration and quickly bolstered its bottom line. More importantly, he did so while supporting the artistic direction of the company.
