A fantasy of a self discussion
Presentation by Cæcilie Heldt Rønnow
…
and the shrimp jumped up high
because it believed it could fly
can it be, can it be that I’m free?
but the poor shrimp crashed
directly into the trash
the shrimp looked up
it’s too far to the top
alone, alone in the unknown
then It heard a sound
and looked around
…
In the performance ‘A fantasy of a self discussion’ Cæcilie Heldt Rønnow splits up her personality into 5 different characters; a shrimp, an ant, a maggot, a blow fly and a narrator. The characters are presented in rhythmic rhymes inspired by folktales, hip hop and children’s lyrics. Parts of the jester-like costume have a functional role in extending the body and creating different sounds. Together with the gestures and dance moves, the costume and the choreography are used to activate the sound pieces and underline the different elements of the tale.
In this session Caecilie Heldt Rønnnow will present the performance and discuss how she uses storytelling, self reflexion, identity and animals in her works.
