Location: Audience will rotate in sequence throughout multiple locations beginning and ending at the Heskett Center Swimming Pool. Limited number of seats available.
Brave New World is an original experimental dance theatre production written, directed and produced by Nicholas Johnson and the School of Performing Arts Dance Program. The audience will rotate in sequence through these locations. This experimental work of physical theatre will, similar to the book by Aldous Huxley, examine the the effects of a conformist society when confronted by the behavior of an outcast individualist. The work is written and directed by Nicholas Johnson, Director of Dance and includes choreography from Denise Celestin, Sabrina Vasquez and Cheyla Chandler. The event is not only designed to stretch the conventional theatrical boundries of theater-based performance but also create an event that breaks these boundaries while including the WSU campus boundary as an entire, single, social, organic entity. The event is multi-disciplinary to the extent that technology, videography, dance, theatre and physical theatre create an extended moment that shifts audience perception towards self-reflection and hopefully new concepts of external and internal space. Perchance to dream...or at least to change the dreams people have at night. This spring event is a collision of two worlds where a uniform, conformist and highly structured but passionless society is confronted by a new vision, a visit from others, outside the social context and different in ways difficult to measure. Wild, free, and curious, these others immerse themselves in the new world they yearn to be part of but discover they don t fit.
