Diverse dancers from Southeast Asia and Japan create the imagined world of a colony through dance and movement. Each expressing their personal challenges and aspirations beyond their limitations and comfort zones.
They live in enforced proximity in an urban tenement yet exist as disparate entities distanced by prejudice ignorance and fear.
They struggle to make connections despite their differences while negotiating long-held preconceptions of what it means to be perfect complete normal valuable human.
In the natural world the survival of any colony of organisms depends on its ability to function as a single cohesive collective. Differences diversity perceived strengths and weaknesses are embraced as necessities – sine qua non – “without which not.”
And so too it is with our colony.
COLONY – A True Colors Project is the result of an intense collaborative experiment. A blank canvas on which the artistic director choreographer composer film director dancers and designers organically paint a narrative in dance music and film.
Unscripted films are seamlessly woven in. They give the audience a peek behind the curtain revealing the most sacred element of any artist’s creative journey – the rehearsal space.
