【Pre show】

本舞作預計於19:15起，於觀眾席、舞台上將有部分舞者陸續出現，進行前導肢體呈現。

The performance is scheduled to start at 19:15, with some dancers gradually appearing in the audience area and on the stage, presenting introductory movements.

每個人的身體都是一部土地與人類的時間史，記錄下生命每一步的選擇，你住在哪裡？又從何而來？人類在這時代下的移動與遷徙中，已經演化成什麼樣的人了？《 我所起舞的地方》 希望我們可以透過身體與生命的移動去想像未來，去看見這座城市的過去，那些已經不在的，被選擇改變的，以及自己決定的路，試問自己為何跳舞？其中的文化與民族之間，在這當代社會是如何感受又如何被觀看。

編舞家將探索舞者與土地之間的關係，透過語言與身體去挖掘其中的故事，究竟每一個人選擇起舞的地方，那足以讓身體釋放生命力量的地方，究竟是哪裡？又為何是這裡？

我來自臺灣，也是一個多元族群尋找文化共融的島嶼國家，生活在亞洲太平洋海域的一座小島上，有許多內外之間的流動，需要學習的一直都是包容性，我想透過這份包容性去看新加坡的華人社會，去探究不同種族與華人文化之間的關係。

人類為了生存 ，是如何讓自己強大？

為了自由，又將作出什麼犧牲？

有時感覺整個地球只剩下這一個島嶼在發光 

像是舞台上的微光，充滿希望與期待

在草地上奔跑著，那是大自然的寬廣　

是城市沒有的東西，那城市有什麼？

如果人不會跳舞，那情感要如何流動？

用說的與動的有何不同？

Every human’s body is a timestamp of history and humankind, recording the choices made at every step of life – where do you live? Where did you come from? How has humankind evolved through the constant movements and migrations in this era? In this work, audiences are invited to imagine the future through the movements of bodies and lives, and look into the past of a city – those that no longer exist, those that have been chosen to change, and those paths that we have decided for ourselves. Ask yourself: why do you dance? And how are the cultures and ethnicities within the dances being perceived in the current society?

Choreographer Chou Shu-yi delves into the relationships between dancers and lands – through their bodies and spoken language, discovering stories of places. Where they began dancing – the place where their bodies are able to expel life forces – where exactly is this place and why this place?

Singapore and Taiwan are both islands with a multi-racial population. They are both melting pots of diverse cultures floating on the Pacific Ocean, with multiple movements in and out with the outside world, inducing a need for open-mindedness, through which the choreographer looks at the Chinese community and its relationship with the other races and cultures.

How do humans empower themselves for survival?

And what do they sacrifice for freedom?

Sometimes it feels like there is only one glowing island left on earth

Just like the dim light onstage, full of hope and anticipation

Running on the field, that’s the vastness of nature

That’s missing in a city, and what’s there in a city?

If we do not know how to dance, how do emotions move and flow?

What difference is there between words and movements?
