DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT

Don't Worry About It.

A Double-Bill that explores two different ideas with the same goal. A solo and a trio that raises the question of “ How do you see us vs how do we see ourselves”?

Works...

SEEN

SEEN is a new work choreographed by Pulga Muchochoma featuring dancers Adèle Ross, Christina Litt Belch, and Katie Adams-Gossage. The idea of this trio was to highlight each dancer’s individual personality and style. Pulga met the artists during their time studying at The School of Toronto Dance Theatre and wanted to create space for the artists to be seen both as performers and as individuals, to allow them to get to know who they are. SEEN raises questions of personal curiosity, relationships, life stories and how to bring these into the work. The main goal of this work is for the artists to feel seen without criticism or judgment. Allow people to see them, without any effort. “You need to be seen”...

NGOMA

Ngoma is a solo self-choreographed by Pulga Muchochoma. It was first created as a 5-minute solo presented by Lua Shayenne at Wassa! Wassa! Africa Dance & Drum. The initial piece was 5 minutes of non-stop dancing with the intention to dance to every single beat at the same time. The new extended version toggles between making the choice of dancing to every single beat at the same time or ignoring every single beat at the same time and noticing the relationship this creates in the body. As always, Pulga’s work leans on the hands of his Ancestors.
