ALL TO GET HER (2012)

All To Get Her is an ensemble dance work that reveals the vulnerability, fragility, and resiliant strength of each female dancer and the unique beauty of their dancing bodies.

Choreography by Jade Dewi Tyas Tunggal for Quantum Leap Dance Company for Me Right Now Season
Original music composition by Adam Ventura in collaboration with Jade Dewi Tyas Tunggal

Young women isolated and together:
Friends and enemies - manipulation, negotiation and lies
Mimetic rivalry – is the nymph ECHO the polar opposite of Narcissus?
Echo resonance - an emerging expression of a voice
Embodying elemental water – transformation of panic to tenderness
Imitating terrestrial beings - animals, insects, birds, fish and other dancers
Discrimination games - blindfold, charades, spinning, skipping and bull rush
Negotiating laws - making rules and competitive justice
Miss Behaving – chaos, irresponsibility and danger

"Another highlight of the evening was All To Get Her, by Jade Dewi Tyas Tunggal. Adam Ventura’s soundscape was a perfect blend of timeless, meditative music for the girls to present their take on becoming women and exploring female sexuality."
