From the organizer:
Standpoint Theories comes back this October with edition Standpoint Theories – Legends of Vietnam Remix.
The project will be presented as an evening-length interactive dance performance inspired by six well-known Vietnamese Myths:
– The legendary story of Âu Cơ, an immortal mountain fairy who married Lạc Long Quân
– The God of Tản Viên Mountain known as, Sơn Tinh
– Chử Đồng Tử – a marsh boy
– Princess Liễu Hạnh, a heavenly spirit and Mother Goddess
– Bà Chúa Xứ known as Lady of the Realm
A collaborative international project focused on building a graphic novel of six Vietnamese legendary myths by using the means of a blend between modern and hip-hop dance, Vietnamese text, live visual art/3D mapping and live electronic music fused with an urban twist.
Standpoint Theories has established itself as one of a select number of productions that feature multi-disciplinary arts within the local Vietnamese and expat community. It was accepted into the Amsterdam Fringe Festival and has been published in the Contemporary Dance World Almanac 2015.
