生无可恋?| Shattered

Choreography: Michael Wong

Performance: Psyche by NUS Chinese Dance












to understand wat message is this dance portraying to the audience, you must first understand the synopsis:

爱已逝,梦已碎,一切皆已化为乌有。
就连生,也在无可恋。
离开就不会痛...但表面的解脱,并非彻底的解决。
它,只不过掩 饰了更深的逃避。

When love is gone,
dreams are unfulfilled,
hopes are dashed and life is broken,
suicide and death seems to be the only way out...
But is it?


the first time i saw this dance, i was moved by it. i dun mind seeing it again, again and again. but i noe i cant be so selfish, because wanting to see Shattered again, again and again, the dancers must dance again, again and again, and they will die, die and die, because i noe this dance is a physically and emotionally shag item. haha.

this dance really creates a strong impact on the audience, and it is most fitting to be the last item of Psyche.

from the bottom of my heart, Shattered is my favourite item for Psyche.

michael is a wonderful choreographer, and he always choreo masterpieces for the arts fest performances. last year ethereal performance my favourite item is chinois blues, also choreo-ed by him.

and i am honoured to be able to dance in 2 of his items for DR2008. yay! so i must train hard on my technique and not ruin his items. :p
