Shinshoku

Overview

A loosely structured series of solo scenes in which one performer dances to a text read by the other, interspersed with duets where both dancers move to sounds and music. It was first premiered at the Drama Studio in Kanazawa Civic Arts Village in February 2024, and this new version was specially adapted for this venue. The word "Shinshoku" was coined to describe this project, which explores the possibility of whether the body can exist independently from or merge with another’s physical and personal space.
