Works being performed:
Clothes
maketh (wo)man: Choreographed by Tegan Peacock with
the assistance of members from ReRouted Dance Theatre. Fashion versus Gender.
Is fashion truly a means of self expression or is it just a shield,
constricting our physical bodies and ultimately our true selves into certain
parameters of acceptability. Performers: Tegan Peacock, Ashleigh Joubert, JC
Zondi
Ubani
ontshontshe inyongo? / Who stole the gallbladder?: With
choreography and text by Gcina Shange (Dancing Heads) this work challenges,
questions and comments on the state of society in current times.
Is it possible to be submissive to a pain
that you will never feel?
“my father's words are in the name of his
children,
while they are walking history...followers
of unknown ideas...pushed into a box...
Being free is to be naked alone...”
Performers:

It’s
like a Second Skin: Choreographed and performed by
Lorin Sookool, the blurred behavioural boundary of our digital-online and
private-offline selves, becomes the site of this new work. ”It's like a Second
Skin” contains a series of images curated and captured by Durban based
photographic artist Jerome Stoffels as well as original lyrics by the
unapologetic female rapper Lex LaFoy.
The Floating Outfit Project, as part of
their ongoing mentoring program for young artists under the leadership of
Desiré Davids, presents an evening of three works with the focus on young
female voices in the field of contemporary performance. These public
performances have been planned in order to create additional platforms for the
choreographers to research, experiment and showcase their latest ideas,
including various collaborations. Audience members are encouraged to chat and
give feedback to artists afterwards in the bar / café area.
