Interiors (2007)

Interiors is a three-part vertical dance piece by choreographer Amelia Rudolph with an interactive set by Todd Laby that celebrates, and questions assumptions about, every day life. It reframes movement, relationships and values in the context of the interior of a house. The house is defined in part by a climbable flying dinner table and an elegant oversized picture frame. Built so dancers can move in, on, around and through them, the set pieces are a springboard for the lyrical, minimalist and highly physical three-dimensional choreography. The work seeks to turn everyday life on its side to unearth the beauty of the quotidian and expand the ordinary to include the absurd.
