THE PACE
CHOREOGRAPHED BY
LÆRKE LUND THESTRUP
The Pace explores how people respond differently to a fast-paced life, and how these responses take shape through the body and movement. Through the research process, it became clear that pace and pressure are experienced in many ways. For some, they feel restrictive and almost paralyzing, while for others they act as a driving force that sharpens focus and the ability to act.
The performance was originally combined with a series of film by Claire Foody. The films that runs throughout the work, reflects an internal thought processes and shifting responses to busyness. It was also supported by Odense Kommune.
The Pace invites the audience to reflect:
Can a fast pace be as empowering as it is overwhelming?
