In AWOL, three dancers search for what it means to live in a society of strict rules and set standards. Three men trapped in a system. Military discipline, tight suits, camaraderie and competition.
The performance exposes the tension between individuality and uniformity, between vulnerability and authority. What happens when you break free from a structure dominated by power and expectations? What if a perfectly trained body begins to falter?
Living painting powerfully bends boys will be boys symbolism.
The media about AWOL
"Dobysh and Bus thus prove themselves once again as the strong professionals they are. Like William Forsythe does with ballet, in AWOL they take the dance techniques they are masters of out of context (performers and creators come from the world of club and street styles). They bend these to their will to shine as abstract 'language'." (Theaterkrant)
