Room
The Room Dance Theatre (China/UK)
As individuals who have not experienced childbirth, how do we imagine this
process? Having been born, how do we use our bodies to reawaken memories
of our birth? And what happens when we try to recall it? In a womb-like
space, dreamlike imagery combines with tightly choreographed ensemble work
to explore the unique energy of motherhood. Having experienced birth
alone, can we experience a shared birth? The entire performance of Room
aligns with the process of birth, inviting audiences to return to their
original state of existence and engage in a process of rebirth.
