Experiences with a Stranger
Sonia Gomez (Spain)

Dance, performance art, physical theatre? You decide. An interactive experience on-line and in the flesh.

In this creative, personalised, unique project Sonia Gomez gets to know a male volunteer for several weeks before her performance; exploring his desires, interests, fascinations – from art to travel, to body image, fantasy and more. Using dance, film, photography, music – whatever is appropriate to enhance the show. Sonia then creates a pilot TV programme, but for the stage.

In 2006 – 07 Sonia undertook the creations: Natural 2 (opening Mercat de les Flors, October 2006) and The Vicentes kill to the men, in the Sala Los Manantiales of Valencia. Experiences with a Stranger first opened at the Mercat de les Flors in March 2007, Barcelona.
