Dance review: Striking imagery and a powerful Pite piece at @BalletBC season-opening DAWN. A standing O for Frontier’s awe-inspiring visual magic and multiple layers of meaning; plus, erotically charged Heart Drive and ever-shifting Cloud Poem @BalletBC

Here's how to spend an afternoon with your aunt who stopped in on her way to Aspen, draped in Chanel as always: relax at @MirajHammamSpa, go for lunch at @FairmontPacific, slide into a seat at @BalletBC and more.
