FLICKER
SPRING TOUR 2005
(22 January - 26 March 2005)
Shobana
Jeyasingh Dance Company's new work Flicker features specially commissioned
digital visuals and music by iconic British composer Michael Nyman.
A creative reunion of two innovative artists, whose previous collaboration
in 1988 was Shobana Jeyasingh Dance Company's first production 'Configurations'.
Exploring their shared interest in shapes and random patterning,
the music and choreography will collide, clash and melt together
in alternating rhythms and unstoppable motion.
Flicker
will be preceded by a newly re-worked version of 'Transtep', which
impressed audiences at British Dance Edition 2004. Comprising exclusively
of Shobana's choreography, it charts an intriguing path taking the
dancers from grappling with the jagged edges of Ryoji Ikeda's electronic
music through to a theatrical resolution in a neon-lit space set
to Montiverdi; the music is a stark contrast, yet both are perfect
partners for Shobana's unique choreography.
