Appel - Marso developed the ideas for this piece in collaboration with Navala Chaudhari inThe Place’s research programme Choreodrome, and subsequently performed it as a work-in-progress in Touch Wood. The work is a trio based on the live interaction between two dancers and a musician who plays Bansuri (flute) and tabla. The piece portrays the instinctive elements of dance and the spontaneity of music, inspired in equal parts by b-boying, Capoeira and contemporary dance. Breaking Point - Featuring four dancers and two musicians, this piece is inspired initially by the effect of music on people in the hip-hop culture and the b-boying scene. From the critical moment of personal stress, to the the bboy throwing down to the break in the music, breaking point is the instinctive human response to emotion, music, society, life. Eteins Pas - A fragment of an idea that has evolved into a work in progress, this piece was inspired by the idea of life after death, with many ideas coming from reading stories about out of body experiences.
