Stay On It
Film de danse
“Stay on it” is a dance film based on the company’s stage play of the same name.
The dancers were asked to place their material anew in the spaces of the Kühlhaus Berlin and to develop it further.
The music for the piece is by Julius Eastman, one of the most distinctive voices of minimal music, as he was one of the few African-American composers of the era.
This and the fact that he openly lived his homosexuality made him an outsider in the art scene of the time. After his death, he was initially forgotten, but for some years now his music has received great recognition worldwide.
Eastman was not only a musician but also had a great affinity for dance and choreography.
In our opinion, the influence of dance experiences can therefore be clearly felt in a piece like “Stay on it”
