Dance on Film: a 5-part class hosted by onUP productions & Frog in Hand
2026-03-11 01:11
In this five-part class, you will be guided from concept to creation of your very own dance film!

About this event

ABOUT
Since the pandemic, the demand and interest in dance for film has increased exponentially, but support for film making has not. Frog in Hand & onUP are teaming up to change all that.
This Dance on Film Class, led by Colleen Snell and Sid Sawant, covers all you need to grasp the basics of film making for dance. Join us to have fun, get creative and be guided through the process of making a dance film – from concept to creation. Whether you are keen to experiment for artistic reasons, to learn more so you can market your dance studio/company, or you just want to create great content for social media, this class is for you – no prior experience necessary.
You’ll leave with new filmmaking skills, a more thorough understanding of filmmaking for dance, what you can do on a shoestring budget, tips to upgrade the quality of your films, and advice on when you need to call in professional film makers for help. Best of all, at the end of the 5 weeks, you’ll walk away with your own completed dance film.
The class is an investment of $500 (plus Eventbrite fees), and will run every Wednesday of November from 6pm-9pm (EST). The class will be held in person, at the AN1 studios in Mississauga. Once you’ve registered, you can opt in to receive a filmmaking starter kit (light, gimbal), for an additional upgrade fee of $250 (optional).
This class is a co-presentation between Sid Sawant (Founder, CEO onUP Productions film company), and Colleen Snell (Artistic Director, Frog in Hand Productions dance company).
CLASS 1: November 2 – DEVELOPING YOUR CONCEPT & CREATIVE IDEA
CLASS 2: November 9 – FILMING YOUR IDEA

CLASS 4: November 23 – FINALIZING & POST PRODUCTION
CLASS 5: November 30th – FILM SCREENING, SHARING YOUR WORK & NEXT STEPS

42nd Street
Presented by Etobicoke Musical Productions

For aspiring performers, it’s all about their one big break. The moment when fate calls their name and the spotlight finally lands on their mark. In 42nd Street, the name fate calls is Peggy Sawyer, a talented young tap dancer from Allentown, Pennsylvania. After she follows the stars in her eyes and moves to New York City, Peggy gets noticed by a famous director and lands a chorus role in a brand new show. But when the lead gets injured, they scramble for a new lead star and the show is on the line. Enter Peggy Sawyer, the one talent bright enough to take on the leading role. Her rise to stardom is what Broadway dreams are made of. 42nd Street leaves it all on the stage with show-stopping tap dances and high energy ensemble numbers set to audience favourites like “Lullaby of Broadway” and “We’re in the Money”.

Eileen Oswald Memorial Exhibition

VIEW ARTWORK
On behalf of the family of Eileen Oswald, we invite you to an in-person and online memorial art show from November 7 – November 13 in the VAM Gallery.

There will be a silent auction component to this exhibition with all proceeds being donated to Visual Arts Mississauga. Click the link above to view the artwork available, bidding closes November 13.

Artistry

Eileen will be remembered for her soft-spoken kindness, her curious spirit, her twinkling eye and her great love of the arts.
Eileen took up painting after her children had grown. She earned a Fine Arts degree from Sheriden College and for the next 35 years, she painted regularly with the Pastel Artists of Canada, Colour and Form Society, Clarkson Art Society and Creative Studio.
Eileen loved experimenting with different mediums. In a 2013 article from the Mississauga News, Eileen said “Each medium offers a unique challenge to me. I can always think of another ‘What if?’ to use them. My motto is ‘Try’ — which sometimes works well.” Eileen had a 25 year retrospective show at VAM that year. “With this show I hope to share a slice of my journey of curiosity and experimentation for the years of 1995 to 2005, using these different media.”
We welcome our VAMily to enjoy the artwork Eileen Oswald has created as her legacy as an artist continues.

Check out SAWITRI Theatre’s First Ever Comedy Show, LOL!2022

TORONTO’S MOST ACCLAIMED STAND-UP AND PHYSICAL COMEDIANS COME TOGETHER FOR AN EPIC FORTNIGHT OF HILARIOUS DOUBLE-BILLS TO LIGHT UP THE DREARIEST MONTH OF THE YEAR!

Mississauga-based theatre company SAWITRI Theatre presents its first foray into full-fledged
comedy with LOL!2022 From November 11-13 and November 16-20, a double header will take
the stage every night, including stand-up comedy from headliner Ali Hassan (HBO Max, CBC,
SiriusXM) alongside Anto Chan, Nour Hadidi, Evan Carter, Leonard Chan, Harpreet,
Al Val, Clif Knight, Anthony Engelbrecht, Dena Jackson, and Ryan Dillon.
Ali Hassan’s DOES THIS TASTE FUNNY? – Deconstructing a chef’s journey from
food to comedy. Ali Hassan’s career plans started off as simply as anyone’s: become a chef, get
a food show on television, get a second food show on television, be the face of the network and
have oven mitts with his face on them. But sometimes things get in the way of your dreams:
like your parents’ disappointment, your family of four children and your successful comedy
career. This show is a hilarious exposition of Ali’s journey in and out of the culinary world in
which he spent 12 years. Think Eat, Pray, Love….minus the Prayer.
Sex T-Rex Comedy will also remount their award-winning sketch comedy revue, Sketch T-
Rex (Patrons’ Pick Award, 2022 Toronto Fringe; Best of Fest, 2019 Toronto Sketchfest).
Sketch T-Rex is created and performed by Sex T-Rex: Conor Bradbury, Julian Frid,
Kaitlin Morrow, Seann Murray.
