The Gaga technique lies at the heart of this new piece. This marks a new phase in Obad’s personal journey exploring the inherent possibilities of the new choreographic language he has invented.
The Gaga technique lies at the heart of this new piece. This marks a new phase in Obad’s personal journey exploring the inherent possibilities of the new choreographic language he has invented.
To display this language as clearly as possible, he places his 11 dancers in a closed space lit with green light. There is a bench at the back on which the dancers sit at times while awaiting their turn, and from which they get up to participate in this celebration of a movement whose intimate limits they are trying to discover.
