Common Ground
A ritualistic battleground for two dance greats,
Common Ground is a choreographic game of chess.
Ingrained rules are upturned by unexpected moves — intricate gambits, sacrifices and reactive attacks.
Together with her team, Dutch choreographer and former Chunky Move Artistic Director Anouk van Dijk
looked at the duet form as both a utopian ideal and a display of the inherent complexity that
partnerships bring.
Restaged and performed by two strong Skånes Dansteater dancers, this breathtaking duet has
become a poetic study on similarity, equality, defining territory and shifting grounds, testing the tension
between the support we need and the restrictions of codependency.
Common Ground is danced by two dancers, the cast alternating between dates:
Dancers: Samuel Denton and Kat Nakui: 8 Feb, 16-17 Feb, 2-3 March.
Dancers: Amy Josh and Simone Frederick Scacchetti: 10 Feb, 23 Feb, 25 Feb, 27-28 March.

Fascinated by the feuds between political leaders
on the national and international stage,
and the public celebrations of their own reign,
I explored the dynamics of power.
