Lines of enquiry and my natural curiosity

Initial questions I had included:

• would the dancers be able to work in this way?

• could they remember so much material?

• whilst at the top of their game as dancers would they be able to

step outside of preferred ways of working and the brain and body

be able to work in a new way?

• could they do long sessions?

• what was the body capable of and not capable of?

• how would they relate to the music?

• with two such powerful personalities would they listen to me and

let me make the piece I saw this being?

It is always good to go into any process with the right questions and

discover answers and find new questions.
