On the stage is a group of women whose years are etched upon their bodies (60-82 years old). While most danced as girls, as they matured they were required, by their parents, to stop. These women returned to dance as adults, challenging the common conception that sanctifies the younger body in general and the dancer’s body in particular. GO is a manifesto for this body.
In this performance, moving side by side, are a pilot, a ballerina, and an elderly woman. From the relationship which is built and unfolded between the images and the physical body, questions arise about presence, free will, coercion, and domination. GO seeks to expand the discussion beyond the particular body to our existence as individuals and as a society.
