B. Dance, a contemporary Taiwanese dance group, presented its production Rage, from May 26 – 30. An interview with B. Dance’s Founder and Director, Tsai Po-Cheng was held to discuss Rage and other topics. The video is now available for viewing on our YouTube channel and below.

 

Founded in 2014 and led by Artistic Director & Choreographer Po-Cheng Tsai, B.DANCE is an emerging Taiwanese contemporary dance company. Rage premiered at the Concert Hall of Taipei National University of the Arts in 2018 and is inspired by the eponymous crime novel by the Japanese writer Yoshida Shuichi and the film directed by Lee Sang-il. Beyond an apparent serenity, this creation exposes the violence and anger of our society. By exploring the depths of the human soul, Po-Cheng Tsai reflects on the ability to face and adopt current societal tribulations. Through beauty and fluidity, the bodies convey a narrative of desolation and loneliness. Rage is approximately 40 minutes long.
