Do as I Say is a physical dance performance that explores the issues of bullying and authority. The performance is interactive, with both the audience and dancers receives instructions from a recorded voice, but who is actually in charge?
Through abstract choreography and concrete stories, the audience is taken through an emotional and thought-provoking journey. How does group pressure affect us? Who is an authority? Why do we all do as he says? And what happens if we don’t or if we say no? DO AS I SAY is a performance that evokes emotions and creates new thoughts in both youth and adults.
