 Guiding Light, The

Guiding Light, The

Synopsis:
A sci-fi religious ballet. It explores religiosity in the balletic body, the desire to believe in something, and the complex relationship of the individual within the group. Composed of a trio, The Guiding Light explores the uncanny through the multiplication and duplication of the dancers both metaphorically and actually. A hypnotic structure of counter-clockwise circles, the repetition of the bodies is familiar yet foreign. The dance plays out a haunting in the ways personal experience and history are replayed through the language of dance. With their gaze shifting gradually upwards through the piece, the girls exercise the physically daunting, somewhat cultish, relentless ritual practice of ballet.
