Dance Performance

Don't lean

choreographer – A. Zakusova, St.Petersburg, 2014

Set designer, costume designer

Plastic sketches made out of watching people on the metro — danced not by dancers but by drama actors. Matveeva gave them two rows of metro seats that move, and nothing else but the bare black walls of the hall.

Фроттаж и другие радости

Художница София Матвеева придумала два ряда кресел, как в метро, только движущихся, кроме них — голые черные стены (зала центра «Каннон Данс»).

The designer Sofia Matveeva came up with two rows of seats, as in the metro, only moving; apart from them there are the bare black walls of the Cannon Dance centre’s hall.
