Routing

Daredevil Arts Festival

Routing is an immersive and multimedia dance show that looks at the fragmented experience of migration.

The Electric Lodge

ROUTING by SANCHITA SHARMA is a personal and communal journey that explores the themes of migration, borders, and belonging. Routing reflects on the fragmented experience of migration, especially focusing on feelings of loss, in order to create bridges with people who might have experienced loss of a community, been made to feel like an outsider, longing to be seen and to belong.Sharma delves into her personal embodied experience of migration and the complex interplay between creating a network, developing heightened adaptability, and undergoing several acts of relocation. Combining improvisation, postmodern, and folk dance traditions with her collaborators Celeste Camfield and Aída Hernandez-Reyes, Sharma views the experience of migration as one connected to time—the discontinuity and rupture with a life that existed before and a new life that begins in diaspora:“As an outsider, one mistake, one misstep, one act of non-compliance can throw my life upside-down. This work is a response to that fear as well as a need to prove that there are ways of building a world, a life, a community, a culture that needn’t be categorized (such as exotic, other, non-western).”This project is a search for connection amongst labeling, profiling, and forced erasure of migrants in the US. It is an attempt to show how migrants embody the limits of translation between home and host cultures, a temporal rupture with their past, and a constant feeling of alienation from one’s lived experience.Credits:Choreography: Sanchita SharmaPerformers: Celeste Camfield, Aída Hernandez-Reyes, Sanchita SharmaMusic: Jolly Roger StudioLighting Designer: Tory BorgstedteCostumes: Kelsey OliverVideography: Celeste Camfield &amp; Sanchita SharmaVideo Editing: Celeste Camfield --------LOCATION: ELECTRIC LODGE / KELMAN THEATERThis performance is part of the Daredevil Arts Festival, a multi-weekend performing arts festival co-presented by Electric Lodge and Pacific Resident Theatre, celebrating bold voices and multidisciplinary storytelling in the Venice community.Choose from over 50 performances running July 11–19 (with an Opening Night Party on July 10).
