JDCS 2009
Chiasso, Switzerland

Venue:Cinema Teatro Chiasso
Time:15:15
The Making of Spectacles, an interactive quartet, will be presented on the 23 of January 2009 at the JDCS in Chiasso, Switzerland. In this piece, the audience is invited to collaborate with the artistic team in order to compose a unique performance. The elements presented ie. dance phrases, dramatic scenarios, music, lighting design, and costuming are carefully crafted in advance and offered as tools to the spectators for the creation of a dance to their taste. After playful, democratic voting, where humor is invited, the spectators can enjoy the synthesis of their group decisions. The piece becomes a way to look at the psychology of spectator expectations, aesthetic desires, and participation in the making of a work of art, as well as an essay in desacralizing the grandeur of the spectacle.
