Summary/Abstract: The Bald Soprano by Eugene Ionesco is a classic example of the Theatre of the Absurd, which explores the absurdity of human existence through nonsensical dialogue, disjointed narrative, and surreal imagery. Transforming this play into a multimedia dance performance is an experiment that intends to re imagine it by incorporating contemporary stage vision and contemporary music to update the play’s commentary on modern society. This perspective involved reimagining the characters as dancers, and incorporating visual techniques, complemented by an optimally balanced soundtrack. Dancing with the Bald Soprano required a collaborative effort between choreographer, visual artists, musicians and student performers to create a visually stunning and immersive experience that brings the play to life in a new and exciting way. Stressing the relation of interdependence between dance, music and video techniques, through our multimedia dance performance, Dancing with the Bald Soprano, our goal is to redefine the art education for our students.
