REPLICAS uses text messages from couples at various stages in their relationships as inspiration for dance duets, exploring how people communicate digitally. Raw text messages, videos and photos are sent to audience members while they are encountering live performance work, creating a complex relationship between digital and live presences.
REPLICAS examines questions at the forefront of our culture: How is communication changing in the digital age? What can be lost/gained by our new intimacy with technology? How is our attention being stretched by this new information-rich environment? What is the current role of physical presence?
6 performers + 1 AD on tour. Dance with digital elements.
