CHASING STARS – AN INTERACTIVE AND PARTICIPATORY DANCE

The project proposes an immersive and participatory performance by involving virtual ‘props’ that can interact with as well as move from one position to another, by the audience. By doing so, the audience can actively participate in shaping the dancer’s performance. The dance takes shape as the dancer improvizes and choreographs the performance- live, based on her interaction with these virtual props.
