(Big Girls Do Big Things) – By Eleanor Bauer (USA)
Highly-acclaimed Belgium-based American choreographer Eleanor Bauer brings her now famous solo to Dancehouse for two shows only!
(BIG GIRLS DO BIG THINGS) is an empty promise, a pre-emptive lament, a flirtation with expectations, a wrestling match with potential. A solo about scale, volume, extreme limits and the grey areas between them; on grandeur and vulnerability, hubris and humility, visibility and subtlety; on the fragile braggadocio of living large when less is more but more is also unmistakably more.
Watch as a lumbering polar bear becomes graceful and gentle and, in so doing, reflects the struggle of every creature that seeks to fill an empty space with something it has created.
Feedback/Comments
Eleanor is quite the comedian, singer and dancer. This show is very entertaining and artistic and not like anything you would have seen before. I particularly enjoyed the ballet!
It was ok, I was expecting a more 'modern dance' piece
Wonderful creative body affirming show.
Creative and innovative performance by this talented lady
funny! A mixture of song, dance and caberet. You will hear the song "Crazy for You" in a whole new way that will make you squirm and giggle at the same time.
Funny, physical, quirky! beautifully sung and gracefully danced performance!
