About

… for we are all outsiders…

This collaboration between Benoit LaChambre and Ong Keng Sen challenges the parameters of contemporary dance by working with narrative, the grand epic, a personal response to parallel dream universes, the identities of a revered Asian text, and the outsider. like the cat… was conceived by Ong as an experiment of culture where LaChambre and the audience, who know only fragments of the original story, enter into an abstract landscape vibrating with fleeting characters and intense dream states. With LaChambre singularly suggesting the major characters, our landing pad is far away from any preconceived space, time, or identity.
