Semi-Final 4 - Charlotte Eatock and Rachael Mossom/Jelka Milic/Mickael Marso Riviere/Jose Luis Vidal/Ben Wright
Charlotte Eatock & [Rachael Mossom Inspired by the similarities and differences in people, chance happenings and spontaneous love, Charlotte and Rachael are working together to create a series of vignettes that combine real stories from everyday people with caricatures and tall tales. Their piece features five professional performers with sections of film and voice by non-performers, set to music created in collaboration with Diana de Cabarrus. Jelka Milic's piece will look at the struggle of the fusible body through reality. A group of six female dancers undergo a variety of physical transformations and performative modes, as Jelka looks at the body as a socially, culturally and physically inscribed entity. Mickael Marso Riviere's piece for five dancers,
Breaking Point, is inspired by the effect of music on people in hip hop culture and how this translates in the media and in everyday lives. He defines the breaking point as the moment at which you lose yourself to intuition and impulse. From the critical moment of personal stress, to the b-boy throw down, to the break in the music,
Breaking Point is an instinctive human response to emotion, music, religion and life. Jose Luis Vidal 's work is heavily influenced by cinematic process. His ideas come from the way films are created and the way language is used. Ben Wright 's commission is part solo, part short film and part video diary - the crescendo from a blank stage to a fully staged number. Robin Howard Dance Theatre
