Behind the scenes with Risa Jaroslow & Dancers

RTE Dance on the box were lucky enough to get a sneak preview of Risa Jaroslow’s Resist/Surrender in rehearsal at DanceHouse last Sunday.

Resist/Surrender is due to open in the O’Reilly Theatre on Thursday night. Scott Johnson’s original score is being performed live by Crash Ensemble, and Risa’s four accomplished dancers will also be joined on stage by a chorus of 10 male non-dancers from the Dublin community.

Resist/Surrender exposes our assumptions about maleness with explosive physicality and and startling intimacy. ‘Whatever it means in terms of a message, the image burns itself in to your brain, in to your gut’ The Village Voice
