Judson Arts Presents: “Manoeuvre 37” by Kyle Carr Scheurich
“Manoeuvre 37” is an evening length dance-theatre work choreographed/directed by Kyle Carr Scheurich with performances by Scheurich and Ben Green. The work explores themes of fractured identity, the esoteric, with influence from folklore stories of the supernatural and paranormal, while grounding them in human experience and emotional/mental states. Taking place in an artificial enclosure, the performers move between extreme states that work to establish a range of situations on stage. Governed by cosmic laws of the universe, the two figures pursue reunification by identifying with one another; through force and through shared experience. A variety of materials are used by the performers and thus transmute the function of each material.
