SEASON 2019/20
SYSTEM
Living in an age where everything is gradually becoming
digitalised, our perception of the world has changed. For
example, the word ‘system’ typically calls to mind computer
systems, online systems, digital systems and so on.
Following the Oxford dictionary’s definition, a system is a
“set of things working together as parts of a mechanism or
an interconnecting network; a complex whole”.
Our reality is built upon layers and layers of systems – the
legal system, solar system, biological systems, medical
systems, behavioural systems, even the sewage systems in
our homes. We may be well acquainted with the transport
system, and every day we rely on systems of communication
such as WhatsApp, email, and conversation etiquette.
When these things are different but are all invoked under
the same one word ‘system’, what makes a system a system?
REPERTORY PLATFORM
Repertory Platform (R.e.P) explores full-length works by
established local and international choreographers, with the
intent to inject current movement aesthetics into the local arts
community, thereby raising the bar for artistry.
