Neighbours is a raw, powerful collaboration by two extraordinary artists each from a distinct movement and cultural heritage. Pioneering abstract b-boy Rauf “RubberLegz” Yasit and established contemporary dancer Brigel Gjoka were inspired by their time on William Forsythe’s A Quiet Evening of Dance. They’ve created a work that brings together their diverse expertise and draws influence from their Kurdish and Albanian roots. A new choreographic language forms as they examine moments of transformation and contemplation at the crossroads of urban, classical and contemporary dance. Through their shared experience a simple truth emerges, that dance is part of being human. — Brigel Gjoka, Rauf “RubberLegz” Yasit & Ruşan Filiztek
