Feel-Link

The duet of young generation dancers and choreographers Airida Gudaitė and Laurynas Žakevičius in the dance performance “Feel-Link” explores the inner experiences of two people, caused by various love and relationship experiences. The characters in the performance use free urban dance techniques that help to free the body’s motor skills and at the same time bring the theme of the work closer to the dance values ​​of the young generation.

Choreographers and dancers see connections and resonances between the basis of the musical performance and the idea of ​​the performance itself. The title of the performance is a transformation of the English word “feeling” into the new word “feel-link”, which refers to the theme of the performance: the everyday search for true feelings.

The musical basis of the performance is the interpretation of the work “Feelings” by the American pianist and jazz performer Eunice Kathleen Waymon, also known by her stage name Nina Simone. The synthesis of the text, music and dance language of the work allows us to see the repeated efforts to forget or discover feelings.

“This is our first theatrical work and the first purified street dance performance in the theater space, which has not left anyone indifferent in Lithuania and beyond for five years. We believe that this work will interest both representatives of the younger generation and older dance art lovers,” say the creators, Airida Gudaitė and Laurynas Žakevičius

The work was created by the Urban Dance Theater Low Air with the support of the Arts Printing House program for young artists Open Space’11.
