october 1, 2011. Terrassa Noves Tendències (TNT) - Terrassa

Through the use of 4 well renowned iconic choreographies of Dance History, as well as part of the performer’s own dance history, the performance proposes their re-embodiment and re-contextualization as a historical and symbolic gesture of recognition and admiration, as well as an exercise of humorist self-criticism about the dance world and its references. A choreographic collage between the tap dancing of “Singin’ in the Rain”, the disco dancing of “Saturday night fever”, the contemporary dance of “Rosas”, and the classical ballet of “The dying Swan”. All of them imprinted in one unique body that performs part of the collective memory of dance in order to unfold reflections about performativity, gender, ownership and representation in dance and in its History.

This show is conceived for small theaters or non-theatrical spaces and has two possible versions:

- A normal theatrical version: where the audience is located frontally and all the action happens on the same performing space.

- A Site-specific version: where there is a first part that happens inside the theater and a second one that happens outside in the streets. The audience, wearing headphones with music of the show, follows the dancer on a little tour around different public spaces close to the performing space that function as real scenographies for each of the choreographies presented.
