Co. Yamada Un Double Presentation
Celebrated dancer Un Yamada is no stranger to Malaysia, having came here for performances and a residency since 2012.
Impressed by the number and ability of local male dancers, she conducted auditions with the hopes of casting the next staging of one◆piece. Five candidates made the cut and will travel to Japan for rehearsals, before performing the famous work in a double bill with the full Co. Yamada Un troupe at klpac this January 2016.
one◆piece
Since its debut in 2004, Un Yamada’s seminal creationfeaturing a single-gender cast—has toured internationally and been performed by Japan’s leading women in dance. Following ten years of success, it was revised for the opposite sex in 2014, with new sets, costumes and musical accompaniment introduced to reflect this change.
Now coming to Malaysia for the first time ever, the 2016 show will boast an ensemble entirely composed of homegrown talent. Raziman Sarbini, Fauzi Amirudin, Pengiran Khairul Qayyum, Lu Wit Chin and James Kan are set to bring to life the vivid athleticism and military precision that garnered the work much critical acclaim.

The Rite of Spring
The premiere of Igor Stravinsky’s radical production in 1913 nearly resulted in a riot as the audience displayed their displeasure at the ‘avant-garde’ nature of the content. Today, it is considered one of the most influential ballet and orchestral compositions of the 20th century.
Yamada’s interpretation draws on the same primitive forces that inspired the Russian conductor more than a century ago. Performed by the full extent of her company, dancers throw themselves into the complex rhythms of the frenetic score with intense movement, harnessing their collective dynamic energy to explosive effect.
