Due to the declaration of a state of emergency (issued on April 7) based on the Law Concerning Special Measures against the New Coronavirus, it has become difficult for the participants of the Yoan Bourgeois and Collectif Protocol performances to come to Japan from France and for Kota Yamazaki to come to Japan from the United States, and we have decided to cancel the event. The decision has been made to cancel the event.
TRIAD DANCE PROJECT “Genealogy of Dance” has been postponed due to insufficient time for creation, as a result of discussions with the artists. The performance will be held at the Aichi Arts Theatre.
We regret to announce that we have cancelled this event due to the state of emergency declared in Japan on April 7th over the coronavirus outbreak. The situation has made it difficult for the artistic team of Yoann Bourgeois and Collectif Protocole to fly in from France, and Kota Yamazaki to fly in from the United States.
As for the TRIAD DANCE PROJECT “Genealogy of Dance,” we have decided to postpone the performances after a series of conversations with the participating artists, since we cannot secure the participating artists. As for the TRIAD DANCE PROJECT “Genealogy of Dance,” we have decided to postpone the performances after a series of conversations with the participating artists, since we cannot secure enough time for them to develop their works in the space. We hope to reschedule the tryout performances at DaBY and the world premieres at the Aichi Prefectural Art Theater, once we find the best way to do so.
When we look at the city as a living organism that changes its form and function at a dizzying pace, we see it as a moving body that is in constant flux, like a dance.
Furthermore, if we redefine the various functional movements that are latent in everyday life as a single choreography, the city of Yokohama itself will be transformed into a stage.
Please join us in May 2020 for the TRIAD DANCE DAYS, which will take place at three landmarks.
To commemorate the opening of the new dance venue Dance Base Yokohama (DaBY) in April 2020, there will be an opening event that centers on three landmarks of dance in Yokohama.
*Postponement of the performance (date to be determined)
Future plans for the performance are under consideration. We will inform you at a later date after consultation with the artists.
POSTPONED (until further notice)
We are still in conversation about future possibilities for this performance. We will confirm after having discussed with the artist.
The first production of Dance Base Yokohama (DaBY), a dance house to open in Yokohama in April 2020, will examine the “choreography” of dance through three internationally acclaimed dancers from Kanagawa Prefecture.
Marius Petipa, who is said to have perfected ballet; Mikhail Fokin, who further updated classical ballet; Ily Kylian, who fused ballet and modern dance and firmly established them; William Forsythe, who deconstructed ballet; great choreographers who were always innovators.
These three dancers, who are the legitimate inheritors of the philosophy of the master choreographers who have renewed the history of ballet, and who have sometimes inspired the choreographers, will perform their original works that are the starting point of their new performances, and work on their inheritance/reconstruction for today.
Marius Pepita is acknowledged as the person who perfected ballet, Mikhail Folkin revitalized it, Jiří Kylián later fused Ballet with modern dance, and William Forsythe then deconstructed it. In this vein, Toshiki Okada is continuing to breathe new life into the world’s performing arts.
In addition, three dancers, Yoko Ando, Hana In addition, three dancers, Yoko Ando, Hana Sakai and Megumi Nakamura, are the successors to the ideals and innovative impulses of the great choreographers. They bring fresh challenges to themselves and dance that engages the year of 2020.
