Presented by VCA Dance and Design and Production Students
Fountain
- Dance
- Performance
1 hour 15 minutes
VCA Dance students pivot, step and face off. A Fame-and-Fonda-inspired performance, embodying the high-stakes mania of an audition.
Perspiration, inspiration and the drive to live forever (or, at the very least, catch a break). Choreographed by Phillip Adams, Fountain sends an exceptional group of dance and production students through the psycho-physical gauntlet of an audition. Absurdity mounts as the dancers channel the frenzied energy of a Jane Fonda aerobics class and the razzle-dazzle audacity of Fame and A Chorus Line. Retro synth-pop propels them across the stage. An eerie score of prepared piano, theremin, and bells cast a pall over the reach towards glamour and glory. Psychological and emotional limits are pushed. How far are they prepared to go?
