Escapism

Choreography by: Izzy Cantone

Song: “Escapism.” by RAYE and 070 Shake

Description: “Escapism” refers to the places we go to in our minds where we feel completely safe, and the many things that force us to feel the need to hide ourselves from the world around us. In this piece we will see dancers desperately seeking their places of escape and what that means to each of them individually. Maybe some of these dancers will find their escape at the masquerade ball. Some others might feel that the masquerade is exactly what they need to hide from. This piece reveals what is going on inside of everyone’s minds; behind the masks. Dance has always been a form of escape for me, and I hope my dancers and I will bring the audience into an entirely new world; through our movement and behind our masks.
