Dance of the Dead Poet
Interpretation of A Dead Poet's Searching Soul Never Rests in a contemporary dance performance
30, 31 October and 1, 2 November 2014 - Ghent
Dance of the Dead Poet is a dance performance based on the collection of poems ' A Dead Poet's Searching Soul Never Rests' (Sabine Martens - 2012) in which 3 different choreographers interprete the work again together with 15 professional dancers. The poems are also expressedd through, video art and graphic visuals. In this unique and large corss-over project as many artists as possible are involved but also young people in an attempt to make them surf on this artistic inspriring wave. Moreover it is a way of pulling poetry out of the margin and from under the dust, releasing the poems to the audience who is not really looking for them but who can be touched by them in a coincidental way.
