On April 21 and 22 8 pm at AIRDANCE, diverse choreographic voices will converge in HIGHWAY 54, the dance company’s latest studio show. It features distinct kinetic explorations by resident Airdance choreographers; Paul Morales, Avel Bautista and Jethro Pioquinto with guest dance maker Herbert Alvarez of the UP Dance Co., as performed by the AIRDANCE students and company dancers.
This contemporary dance performance will venture into the fast lane of the mythical Highway 54, a melting pot of ideas and cultural influences, a metaphor for the increasing acceleration of communication today and dynamics of quantum change in today’s global village. Highway 54 is the name of many roads including the famous one in Texas as well as being the former name of our very own EDSA. EDSA was constructed in 1940 by engineers led by Florencio Moreno and Osmundo L. Monsod, and first named as North and South Circumferential Road. But at the end of World War II, the American occupiers changed the name to Highway 54. It was in n 1959, by virtue of Republic Act 2140, that the highway was renamed in honor of historian Epifanio de los Santos.
This PAY WHAT YOU CAN showing is part of the Contemporary Dance Map 2007, an annual project of the World Dance Alliance – Philippines that celebrates International Dance Day. Airdance is at The Outlet Yard, 1480 Quezon Avenue off EDSA close to the Sct Borromeo Intersection (National Bookstore).
