Hyperbaton
for Performa/Dance’s Pivot

AustinVentures StudioTheater | Austin, TX

A hyperbaton is “a figure of speech that uses disruption or inversion of customary word order to produce a distinctive effect", and we used it as a thesis for our choreographic direction of this work. Movement was arranged, disassembled, rearranged, repeated, reversed and reinserted for emphasis. With pink lemonade color and energy, super-power dancers brought this thesis to life, heightened by dynamically sweeping original musical composition.
“Hyperbaton” was very (un)simply the one with the dance, that for twenty minutes the gang does.
