Synopsis
Drawing inspiration from the stories of cancer survivors and their families, the dance choreography explores how the spread of cancerous cells took lives away & affect those stricken with it. We hope to raise cancer awareness by portraying stories of cancer patients in the following themes:
These themes will serve as the basis for five (5) original dance items to be presented during Dancescape VI. To trigger some thoughts into the creation process, we plan to visit cancer societies to get first hand accounts of cancer patients’ experiences. In addition, we are also planning to work with a cancer patient/ survivor to join us as a performer for Dancescape VI. |
Objectives
The above are the immediate objectives which we hope to achieve from Dancescape VI. Even after the conclusion of Dancescape VI, we hope to be a regular contributor to the various beneficiaries and to continue to create a positive impact on society via dance related events and activities on a regular basis. Last but not least, as compared to the productions we have staged in the past which focuses on family oriented themes and audiences, for Dancescape VI, we are working towards the showcase of dance as a performance art, incorporating elements of artistry and conveying artistic expressions through the main genres of contemporary and lyrical. |
