Specific Places Need Specific Dances is a dance piece that embarks from the act of waiting. Can waiting be a work of art? This question is the starting point of this 55-minute piece. To answer the question, Darlane Litaay (Indonesia) and Tian Rotteveel (Netherlands-UK) invite each other to enter each other’s space of daily habits. There, they both explore the activities of waiting in their respective cities: early mornings in randomly chosen spots, midnight at a club, middays at the studio, and online on the Internet. Then, they explore their experience in waiting inside a theater. There, they dance for each other and explore images, costumes, sounds, and lights. The piece recklessly combines East and West, high art and pop art, as well as electronic and ethnic music.
Supported by the NATIONALES PERFORMANCE NETZ (NPN) International Guest Performance Fund for Dance, which is funded by the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media on the basis of a decision by the German Bundestag.
