CHOREOMANIA
inspired by the historical phenomenon of the dancing plague that affected people back in the 1500s, this is my modern take on this mass hysteria. in the past, under pressure and uncertainty of their time, broke into an uncontrollable dance that led some to even dance to their death. now as we know history is always repeating itself, itโs cyclical that way, so my question now is why under all the pressures in current day society has there not been another recorded event of this dancing frenzy. have we become to numb as a society? sometimes i even question why i am dancing through what is going on in the world. my dance film tackles this feeling, but it is less anxiety and more desperation. these dancers are not evil but so desperate that they would do anything to get out of this feeling. this desperation i know is shared by many, but what happens when it becomes to much, and it leads itself back to dance. this is CHOREOMANIA ๐บ
