Daikon has as its theme the dancer's body as the primary means and instrument of expression. Through the self-ironic process of inventorying and physically archiving the layers of conscious and unconscious movements, stage and private, the author will tell the story of the body that moves without moving, of the body that is a dilapidated shell in which the spirit still plays passionately, of the delusions of the actor's body.
A story about the constant search for a true movement, and the path of a player on the margins.
Essay in motion is a stage form that the author has been developing for a decade. Like any essay, the essay-in-motion contains footnotes that appear at the end, during, or at the very beginning of the essay-play. The audience always has the opportunity to choose the order in which the footnotes will be revealed/displayed in the space, through text, video work, scene, intervention in the space, interaction or in some other unexpected way. This form is educational and artistic and contributes to live energy and interaction between the audience and the performers.
