◆ Programs

Choreography/Direction: Ryu Suzuki

1) “never thought it would”
Performed by Ryu Suzuki

Pina Bausch said: “Dance, dance, otherwise we are lost.
Dance, dance, otherwise we are lost. Dance, dance, otherwise we are lost. But I lost sight of myself long ago, and all I have left to do now is to keep dancing desperately.

(2) “DIRTY DEEDS DONE DIRT CHEAP”
Cast Rinako Iida, Mariko Kakizaki, Ryu Suzuki, Ken Nakagawa

Denouncing those in power and denouncing the discriminated are not synonymous, even if they use the same words.
What does dance as a mode of communication look like in an asymmetrical relationship?

(3) “Proxy”
Aichi Arts Theatre x Dance Base Yokohama x Dance House Kogane 4422
Performers Kotoha Ito, Yura Sugiura, Daisho Suzuki, Himari Soejima, Genki Matsuyama, Reo Yamada

We are the ones who can finally say what we want to say after losing our bodies. Could it be that ghosts, like the irresponsible avatars of modern social networking sites, existed to hide their existence behind a backdrop to vent their resentment?
