PERSONA
60 minute piece for 4 dancers
Choreography: Seth Buckley & Carlos González
Dancers: Shannon Leypoldt, Meng Ting Liu, Seth Buckley & Carlos González
Persona deals with topics of gender roles, sexuality and identity. Each individual tells their own story while collectively challenging and struggling with the strict social constructs of our society. Art is not always a means to escape reality or to simply tell a story. ‘Persona’ offers a mirror that invokes self reflection by confronting the viewers with societal challenges through the experiences of the performers, while posing questions about self and outward perceptions, and the idea of “role playing”.

Energy is carried through all kind of waves. The energy of some waves can be directly perceived with our senses. We are surrounded by energy that vibrates at different frequencies. We ourselves are energy. Love forces vibrate at the highest frequency and is the highest form of energy.
Love In Waves is a physically charged piece that looks into energy and its capacity to expand, affect and exchange between others. The piece plays with the idea of altering energy and invites the audience to experience it in their own bodies.
