Pride: Snapshots from the Dress Rehearsal

Part One: Entrance

Here the cross is seen more clearly. By using my face, I’m trying to emphasize how prideful I am and that I’m putting myself above God. 

This movement is called “fast twitching”. We’re holding both our hands, and twitching and moving the hands up and down in a fairly chaotic way. 

This movement is called “slow twitching” and it’s just like the previous movement except much slower. The sharp contrast between the fast and slow movement adds a visual effect that helps to create a fascinating choreography. 

Part Two: Image One, Narcism 

This is a synced movement, which we all are supposed to do at the same time. We step over our hands and eventually sit down. For all these last three movements, we’ve hold our hands together. By holding our hands, we are “locked” into using only a limited amount of movements and this is meant to symbolize how one can be “locked” by his/her sin. 

Part Three: Image Two, Love and Obsession with Oneself

We are all improvising and doing different movements on the stage, however the concept behind them is all the same- Narcism. Furthermore, all our faces are the same in order to create a sense of unison and ensemble work.  

Finally we create different “bodies” depending on which body part we’ve fallen in love with. We are using different levels and partner work to make it look more interesting.
