Standing Up

Choreography: Irene Cioni
Performers: Irene Cioni and Jessica Latowicki

The funny, poetic and adventurous journey of a dancer and a comedian.

“It’s a playful and surprising work that leads the audience down one path, only to double back on expectations”

“ ..performed with a pleasing mix of smugness and a playful awkwardness”

“..a claim to ‘honesty’ through the ‘immediacy’ of movement and stand up”

“a precise and crisp synchronicity that says ‘we knew – and we know – exactly what we were doing.’ In this moment, what we might have presumed to be some kind of performance of the self – an honest exposure – is revealed to be something studied, an exercise in control.”
