DEVOLUTION
-a piece of dance for the unfittest

Did our frontal lobe develop too much and too fast? What if we could "de-evolve" a little? Or backtrack and take a different evolutionary path?
Devolution is a dance laboratory where a small flock of humans play-fight with today's existential dread. Through movement investigations, they hope to rediscover our fragile species, and perhaps sniff out some new possibilities. With aspects from the dance form Contact Improvisation, child movement development, and various animal behaviors, they offer an eccentric power point presentation of hope, despair, grandiose ideas and spontaneous inventions.
