Quests was the second site-sensitive performance in a trilogy of work. Following the success of In Situ, D’Arquian returned to explore and deconstruct the multiplicity of self and myths of humanity.
Quests transformed Greenwich Dance’s home, The Borough Hall, into multiple worlds in which temporalities and places coexisted.
Quests is a story of love, loss and creation, in which we are constantly faced with crossroads. As a spectator of this fragmented reality, where the roads of dreams and memories are not so dissimilar, audiences were led to examine their own disjointed self.
Quests was commissioned by Greenwich Dance and supported by Arts Council England, Trinity Laban and DanceEast.
