Colette Sadler:
Variations #1 (on order and anarchy)

In a time of disorientation, the need for rules and reference points is palpable. Collette Sadler daringly tries to juxtapose this desire for orientation together with the principle of radical change. Sadler allows a musical choreographic composition to emerge in a process of continuous change and variation, through the interaction of four dancers and two musicians, which illustrates the dialogical relationship between dance and music from a new perspective. Bodies flow and move, as if in a state of delirium, in a playful manner in search of direction and orientation, creating temporary formations of sound and movement, and an image of a place that is as real as it a memory.
