D.ecagon – epitomizing ten angles and ten sides, an analogy to the 10 th establishment of Dance Horizon Troupe (Singapore) as dancers seek to move and explore their bodies in accordance with the unlimited dimension and boundaries in our normal course of lives, to surge beyond the limitation.
This contemporary dance production seeks to portray our daily lives in various dimensions and transition both physically and emotionally, with dancers exploring their bodies to move in coherence with our daily lives gesture as well as to interpret the often hidden inner aspects of human being, eliciting the connectivity between the dancers and the audience. With the amalgamation of creative stage settings, lighting and short dance films, this production hopes to incite the audience with a unique watching experience.
The production comprises two original full length pieces with the first half by our Resident Choreographer, Mr Benedict Soh who held a Master degree in Dance Choreography with Victoria College of Arts followed by the latter, in collaboration with our guest choreographer, Miss Kuo Nai Yu, an experienced dancer previously with the renowned and internationally acclaimed Cloud Gate Dance Theatre from Taiwan. With the fusion of styles and ideas from both choreographers, this production sets to stage a unique blend of dance elements.
