Yina Ng and Laurel Snyder are co-choreographing a duet exploring the different body/mind/emotional states of being seen, and how they change due to different external situations and internal shifts of emotions; and how those changes relate to our individual history and memories.
How do we want to be seen on stage as performers, and how does that conscious or unconscious decision making process apply to/is affected by the way we are being seen in social settings: on the subway train, in a night club, in an intense eye-to-eye conversation? How do daily social reinforcements affect us as performers? Is that change a helpless emotional surrender, a conscious compromise, a fear to be judged, or a desire to impress?
Well, we don’t know. But these are our thoughts. This is the process of discovering more about those questions that are important to us as performers and as young female artists in their 20s. Come be part of it.
