CREATURE TRILOGY by DPAC
Venue: Theatre, DPAC
Date / Time:
CREATURE TRILOGYpresented by DPAC
Strategic Partner:
Cultural Economy
Development Agency (CENDANA)
Presented by the Damansara Performing Arts Center (DPAC), with the Cultural and Economy Development Agency (CENDANA) as its strategic partner, "Creature Trilogy" will be held at DPAC from 17-18 October.
The impact of the pandemic saw the fate of this year's Damansara International Arts Festival uncertain, which disappointed many art lovers. Since the implementation of the RMCO, DPAC has presented performances through live broadcasts and live streams, as well as stage performances to a limited audience.
The performances from July to September have been met with warm reception and a demand for more. This October, DPAC will bring dance-centric “Creature Trilogy” (initially a part of the Damansara International Arts Festival line-up) to the stage. Dance lovers, go ahead and rejoice!
Three choreographers converge for "Creature Trilogy" Since ancient times, a lot of stock has been put into the biomechanics of dance movement. Flexibility, agility, coordination, and even the explosive force that we witness in a dancer when they are in their element is proof of biomechanics at work. Each of us has a different definition of “beauty” when it comes to dance. Some might prefer the fluidity of body movements that conform to biomechanics; some might be partial to the startling movements brought on by a violation of these biomechanics.
“Creature Trilogy” sees the return of three renowned choreographers and dancers, Raziman Sarbini, Pexstret Liu Yong Sean, and Suhaili Micheline from the United States, South Korea, and Australia respectively. Each of them have made names for themselves in their countries of base and in their home of Malaysia. Taking lessons learned abroad, they now hope to combine their unique understanding of biomechanics to derive new pieces of work.
“Creature Trilogy” will first feature the solo works by the choreographers, which is then followed by a collaborative piece from all three of them. This triple bill will see an amalgamation of their differences in biomechanics, experience, country, and style that is sure to exceed audience’s expectations.
Solo Piece
The Other Creatures Choreographed by : Raziman Sarbini Performed by ：Mohammad Khairi Mokthar, Fauzi Amirudin, Kishore Krishnan, Mohamad Azizi Bin Mansor, Ng Xinying
The Other Creatures is a contemporary dance work. It was premier at NYU Tisch Dance during MFA 2 concert in 2019 and it’s a 15 minutes work. This time, Raziman make it in a longer version. The piece inspired by the Snake and Ladders board game, a classic board game in which we have to roll dice to try and reach the finish point faster than our opponent. The aim of the game is to get to the finish square a quick as possible. The game was popular in the ancient India by name Mokha Patam. It also known in Hindu philosophy as karma and kama or destiny and desire. In 1892 the game was introduced to Victorian England and named snake and ladder board game. The game has also been interpreted and used as a tool for teaching the effects of good deeds versus bad. This inspired the choreography and how the metaphor of the game affect to the society that we live in. Some individual believe that karma exist and some don’t. But what Raziman believed that if we do go to people, we will get the same. On top of that, everyone craving to be on the top. Is that mean to have the power to control others or to make world a better place?
Sound of insect is the idea for Raziman to find the vocabulary, as how his body reflect to the sound...
FRIDGE-Sapiens Choreographed by ：Suhaili Micheline Performed by ： Amellia Feroz, Sofia Tengku, Tristen Zijuin, January Low, Gan Ning Xuan ' For the things forgotten often left rotten, you make the most from what you can take. For the Needs of you kept afresh, if not noticed be frozen in time..'
Forgot to wear a hat and accidently got onto Cinderella’s thief ship, The snowy summer made me fall in love with the thorns of the rose, I planted seeds everywhere and I stopped to listen it, Do I let him free love Choreograph and Perform by：Pexstret Liu Yong Sean Truth, or Dare. Straight forward, nonsense

The Other Story of Ah-Q 《阿Q外傳》
presented by Pentas
Project Theatre Production
In collaboration with THE JAPAN FOUNDATION ASIA CENTER, and DPAC Supported
by PURPLE CANE, CLOUD THEATRE.
讀劇，是舞台劇傳統的準備功夫，
讀劇，亦是不完整與想像勾結的演出。
在舞台戲服佈景都不完整的假想中造反，
7
個演員，搬演 20 個無需粉墨依然登場的角色。
《阿Q外傳》日本劇作家宮本研 Ken Miyamoto 的作品，靈感來自魯迅經典短篇小說集《吶喊》，並以《阿Q正傳》為主軸。
一切都從阿Ｑ開始，也從阿Ｑ結束。
失敗的英雄革命的賊，救人的醫學殺人的刀，
挑起阿Ｑ的自嘲和卑微，剖開垂死掙扎的封建迂腐，
刺破自以為革命家的熱血與淡漠，剁碎螻蟻百姓的末善末惡，
人生或可憎或可笑或可憐或可嘆，從來都是出自那一片不曾絕望的期盼。
Staged reading - a
traditional preparation for the stage.
Staged reading - also a
show where incompleteness meets imagination.
Challenging incomplete
stage/costumes/set, imaginatively,
7 actors perform 20 roles -
barefaced for the audience.
The Japanese playwright,
Ken Miyamoto’s work, “The Other Story of Ah-Q” is inspired by Lu Xun’s
classical short story collection, “Call to Arms” and is based on “The Story of
Ah-Q”.
It all starts with Ah Q,
and it all ends with Ah Q. A failed hero - a revolutionary thief; life-saving
medicine - a killing knife. Triggering Ah Q’s self-mockery and inferiority, dissecting
a feudal decay fighting its dying moments. Bursting the self-proclaimed
revolutionary’s passion or apathy, mincing the commoner’s good and evil.Life’s
loathings, ridicules, pities, laments, which have always come from a never
despairing expectation.
劇情簡介 Synopsis :
成長於二戰時期並在北京度過少年歲月的宮本研，透過對魯迅思想的解構和再架構，在60年代末以他擅長描述革命與群眾關係的創作風格，寫下《阿Ｑ外傳》一劇。他將魯迅筆下許多經典人物，如：阿Ｑ（一個卑微的愚人，也是自暴自棄自我安慰精神勝利法的符號），放上舞台與魯迅和其所在的動盪時空，交織在一起對話。透過劇中不同階層的角色，探究社會改革進程中各種的矛盾、憤怒與悲哀。“對民眾來說，革命到底是什麼︖對革命而言，民眾到底是什麼︖”一定要失敗才是英雄︖救人的醫學是否會借用殺人的刀︖
Ken Miyamoto - born during
World War II and having spent his youth in Beijing - deconstructed and
reconstructed Lu Xun’s beliefs to write “The Other Story of Ah Q” in the late
sixties using his expert style of depicting revolutions and social
relationships. He gathered many of Lu Xun’s classic characters to dialogue on
stage, sharing the space with Lu Xun and the tumultuous times they belonged to.
Through these characters of different statuses, the story examined what a
social revolution could bring: the dilemmas, the rage, the grief. “To the
people, what exactly is a revolution? To the revolution, what exactly are the
people?” Must one fail to become a hero? Can medicine save, and yet borrow a
knife to kill?
