Who, Wants what
MCDC comisioned Ania Straczynska to create this piece of work for the Agenda Platform in Reading.
An ironic world build on games and interations. Is it better to stay in the comfort zone rather than let others influence you? Silliness only further distracts us from our needs, goals and aims; ultimately getting us absolutely nowhere.

PLASIX
is a physical contemporary piece based on the development of the One Move Technique, a concept that constructs choreography based on only one move and its experimentations. PLASIX is now being developed into a theatre piece, where dancers travel through unexpected places in a short amount of time through a juxtapositional metamorphosis of contrasting locations. The continual and seamless morphing of one location to the next is used to take the audience on an engaging emotional journey.
Work in progress shared: 12.12. 2015 at The St. Bart's Theatre, Reading
