Igra. Ples. Tučnjava. Veza. Izvedba.
Where the Boys Are razigrano je istraživanje u kojem se ples susreće s borilačkim vještinama. Ispitujući i rekonstruirajući vokabular različitih borilačkih praksi, dvoje izvođača pretvaraju arenu u zonu performansa koja je osjetljiva i intimna. Dvije suprotstavljene sile ulaze u borbu, svaka želi pobijediti onu drugu, ali na kraju kroz neprekidne rituale sudara njihova tijela omekšaju. Ova nova ranjivost poziva jedno da otkrije drugo i uvodi nove načine dodira – uz pažnju i podršku, koji često ne postoje u odnosima između muškaraca.
A game. A dance. A fight. A relationship. A performance.
Where the Boys Are is a playful exploration of where dance meets martial arts. Examining and reconstructing the vocabulary of different fighting practices, the two performers transform the arena into a zone of performance which is sensitive and intimate. Two opposing forces arrive to a match, each wishes to conquer the other, but eventually through continuous rituals of collision their bodies soften. This new vulnerability invites one to discover the other and introduces new ways of touching – with care and support, which often do not exist in relationships between men.
