“Make Hay While the Sun Shines” is a project which maps the dancing movements of our histories. The dance performance engages in time specific and partial views, the uncategorized details that pre-exists the whole, and the chaos called reality. Stemming from a movement practice based on disharmonious change, a dance which might be more like life itself is created: irregular, fascinating, unsuccessful, stumbling, loving and pretty unpredictable.

“Make Hay While the Sun Shines” departs from a movement practice which favours change. Quick and constant change. With the dance, the film and the written down conversations, we want to welcome all our histories into the room. We say yes to spontaneous habits and tiresome stumbles, to memories of dance classes, performances, meetings, clubs or other moving moments that have been part of our lives. And then, we move on.

The short film is made with the current cast of the dance performance and gives an insight into the work, but is neither a documentation nor a behind the scenes-film. Rather, it is a dance made for the camera.
