Yannis Adoniou Choreographic Fellow March 30 - April 19, 2008 Yannis and filmmaker/dramaturge, Talal Al-Muhanna dissected humor by studying particular sources that either produce humorous situations or funny reactions for the viewer. Yannis feels that by understanding where and how humor can be found and accessed, we can all experience it more easily, which could allow for vitality and lightheartedness to be breathed into performance again rather than the solemn and sacrosanct regard that is sometimes expected. Through various methods, they studied and measured audience response to various props, sound scores, juxtaposition, lighting, movement speed and verbal expression. His collaborators included filmmaker and dramaturge, Talal Al-Muhanna and dancers Kara Davis and John Mercke.
