As part of my research to re-think the ways in which dance is created and performed and expand its reach through new dialogues with its audience, I created Naba 2.0, a unique interactive dance work that takes place in a museum setting and allows audiences to choose their own soundtrack for the work. Led by 4 "museum guards" (performers), the work travels through the museum and each chapter offers different tracks which alter the way the viewers experience the choreography, the artworks and the architecture which surrounds them. The work re-adapts to every new museum/gallery and exhibition it showcases in, and can be adapted to young and mature audiences alike. My pitching session will discuss the possibilities laid out in this unique work, and how it might work for various venues and festivals.
