************* ABOUT SLIDIN' THRU
Now more than ever the calls to come together, to move together are apparent. Looking back at what was, while worried for what is to come, in Slidin’ thru, three bodies turn to social dances which emerged from the U.S. in the 70’s & 80’s and the nostalgic tracks which accompanied them. A site specific work imagined for spaces with a certain spacious-social-dance-hall character (i.e. old banquet hall’s and gymnasiums) or outdoors (i.e. squares and basketball courts).
The wish is that we are not only setting these social dances in social spaces, sites for coming together, but hopefully accessing a certain energy embedded in the space that would encourage others in the end of it all to join in.
Slidin’ thru is a piece that reflects upon what it means to stay supple, keep cool and utilise joyful resistance in the face of precarious times, a dance turned ritual offers as a reminder that we’ve been here before, and that we’ll get through it together.
