Dancing Darlings is a performance labyrinth with many different rooms created by Lili Elise Gyshelen with the mentorship of Bart Cappelle, Ruud Gielens and Geert Opsomer.
A performance journey that reflects on the relationship between the self and the other, the interior and exterior.
Dancing Darlings talks about the desire to be loved. The desire to structure a self.
Stage and audience intertwine when spectator and performer get lost in a voyeuristic game of watching and being watched.
During four days different people were invited to go, alone and for one hour, on a journey with three performers within a sensorial multimaterial labyrinth. The visitor follows and constructs a relation with the performers that tell their stories through moving images that unravel through touch with objects & other bodies, creating together with the visitor an unique ritual.
