Inspired by the experience of acculturation to a new home and characterized by a pervasive undercurrent of disorientation, Strange Planet is a 60-minute dance theatre work that explores the dispersal of choreographic decision-making to six performers, able to direct the work and each other from within the dance as they perform.
As the past, present and future comingle, the performers, caught in the limbo between destruction and creation, struggle to navigate a world changing around them, trying to remember what must happen, to recognize what has already happened and to be ready for what has never happened before.
Directed by Jordan Fuchs with live sound design by composer Andy Russ, and created and performed in collaboration with Toby Billowitz, Jordan Fuchs, Kristina Isabelle, Juan Pablo Montes López, Leslie Scates and Storme Sundberg.
