I-LONDON - Izinto Eziyimfihlo, isihloko somkhiqizo omusha kaPam Tanovitz weRoyal Ballet, igcwele ngempela izimfihlo - ezedlule nezamanje, umlando kanye nomdanso wamanje, ulwazi olugcinwe emizimbeni yabadansi, izindaba zabo zomuntu siqu, izinkumbulo namaphupho.
Ihlanganisa abadansi abayisishiyagalombili, ukukhiqizwa kuqale ngoMgqibelo ebusuku ebhokisini elincane elimnyama le-Royal Opera House, i-Linbury Theatre, futhi kufakwe eminye imidlalo emibili ka-Tanovitz yenkampani: Wonke umuntu Ungibambele (2019) kanye ne-Dispatcher's Duet, pas de de.isanda kuqanjwa ikhonsathi ewuchungechunge ngoNovemba.Wonke umbukiso unehora elilodwa kuphela ubude, kodwa yihora eligcwele ubuciko bokuklama nomculo, ubuhlakani, nezimanga ezicishe zibe namandla.
"Izinto Eziyimfihlo" ezivela ku-"Breathing Statues" ka-Anna Kline I-String Quartet ivula ngengoma eyedwa ebabazekayo nemnandi ka-Hannah Grennell.Lapho kuqala umculo othulile, ugibela esiteji, ahlanganise izinyawo zakhe ebheke izethameli futhi aqale ukujika kancane kancane umzimba wakhe wonke, ephendula ikhanda lakhe ngomzuzu wokugcina.Noma ubani oke waya noma wabona amakilasi e-ballet aqalayo uzokubona lokhu njengokumisa—indlela umdansi afunda ngayo ukwenza amajika ambalwa ngaphandle kokuba nesiyezi.
U-Grennell uphinda umnyakazo izikhathi ezimbalwa, uyangabaza kancane sengathi uzama ukukhumbula imishini, bese eqala uchungechunge lwezinyathelo eziseceleni ezigxumayo ezingenziwa umdansi ukuze afudumale imisipha yomlenze.Kuyi-prosaic futhi kuyinkondlo ngesikhathi esifanayo, isango lokuzijwayeza i-ballet kanye nenkumbulo ehlangene, kodwa futhi kuyamangaza, ngisho nokuhlekisa ekuhlanganiseni kwayo.(Ubegqoke i-jumpsuit ephuzi ekhanyayo, ama-legging ahlotshisiwe, namaphampu anethoni ekhomba ezinzwaneni ezimbili ukuze anezele ephathini; ihlombe kumklami u-Victoria Bartlett.)
