"Tomorrow I Will Get Up Again"

Choreography / Performance: Angeliki Nikolopoulou
Music: Petit Fleur - Sidney Bechet, Blues My Naughty Sweetie Gives To Me - Sidney Bechet

​

“Tomorrow I will get up again” is a piece created at first for the Entering the Void project under the theme “elderhood”. Inspired by my grandfather’s remarkable state of mind during his 90 years living in this world, this piece is a suggestion to see life differently; it is a proposal to celebrate what we still have, to enjoy the little things in life, be silly and happy with ourselves. Starting with a stereotypical idea of an old figure that can’t escape the consequences of getting old and that is constantly fighting against time, the choreography evolves to twist this plot; When you believe you had it all and there is not anything else, you still have yourself. You still have your body no matter how much or little it can move; you have your mind to convince yourself that you don’t have to worry so much about everyone and everything; and your heart to enjoy the simplest stuff through this complicated thing we call life. Until we will no longer exist in this world, we are all still here.
