TESSEL: An Esie Mensah Film
Streaming Free Across Canada starting June 1, 2021

An Affirmation of Unity Between 14 Black dancemakers from Across Canada

A national initiative conceptualized by Dora-nominated choreographer and creator Esie Mensah (Shades, A Revolution of Love), TESSEL explores the complexities of movement and voice as a form of resilience – and to achieve truth and honesty in sharing its participants' lived experience as Black dance artists.

Premiering across the country on the one-year anniversary of Blackout Tuesday (June 1) - a day when organizations worldwide publicly expressed their commitment towards institutional change to support the Black community - the film aims to amplify Black voices by providing a platform for the artists to share their truths.

Flato Markham Theatre is honoured to be supporting and co-presenting TESSEL along with a network of 21 Canadian performing arts organizations.

TESSEL will be available for streaming FREE in Canada only by visiting: tessel.film
