Olivier
1. “Connection.”
“Melt into the steps!”
“Are you thinking messy? Think messy.”
Olivier Wevers is directing practice for an upcoming show. Once described as “the
Prince of Abstract,” Olivier Wevers is a creative individual rising. An accomplished
dancer and choreographer from Brussels, Belgium, he received his training at the
Karys Dance Center in Brussels and danced as a Principal at the Royal Winnipeg
Ballet, prior to joining Pacific Northwest Ballet in 1997 where he is was a Principal
Dancer until 2009, when he formed his own dance company, Whim W’him.

3. As a choreographer, Olivier taps into
something charged and primal. He explores
the aesthetics of movement, human sexuality
and music. Each piece, the dancers display
“ugly” hands or a twist of an arm into a loop
and feet flexed instead of pointed. Innovating
dance requires a modification of current ballet
terms to describe what he wants from his
troop.

5. I’m trying to push the boundaries of what is
acceptable in dance.

7. “When I choreograph I am very particular, but
dancers are not instruments--they are people and
I choreograph for these individual dancers.”

9. Watching him at practice for the upcoming
show, it’s hard not to notice his focus, his
precision, his vision. He comments, “that was
one to many turns, wasn’t it?” to his lead
dancer. He demonstrates over and over,
stepping in himself, demonstrating the
motions he sees in his head. The nuances of
the posture, the gesture, all the details his
muscles must remember. The pressure is on
Olivier to see through his vision. He comments
that “The business of dance is full of
challenges. The box office, is everyone happy
with their seat, learning to deal with a board,
dealing with volunteers.”
