Find Me in Here. do i like my name?
Today I asked the dancers to respond to the question “Do I like my name” in choreographed movement. This was followed by working out responses to “Does my name represent me? Is it me?”Here I had them perform their 2nd response in a straight line across the stage á la A Chorus Line.
I checked in to find out how they interpreted “name” - first, last? Written/visual or spoken/aural? Most of us were working with our first name (and Anna chose to use her middle name) and connected to them through their function as interpeters between us and the rest of the world, remembering back to childhood as easily as yesterday.
Next week: I take what the dancers have created and craft it into a short dance — a trial run at the choreographic process I’m using for this piece.
