GEOMETRY OF POWER

GEOMETRY OF POWER (G.P.)

GEOMETRY OF POWER (G.P.) is a visceral, multi-disciplinary dance-theatre performance premiering December 7, 2025, conceived and choreographed by Isaac Gasangwa (Izo Dreamchaser). This groundbreaking 75-minute work plunges into the enduring legacy of the 1884 Berlin Conference, where European powers arbitrarily carved up the African continent, sowing seeds of conflict and division that persist today. The performance employs an innovative fusion of Traditional African Dance, Contemporary, and Hip-Hop to explore the systematic violence and resultant socio-political scars. Through compelling thematic arcs— from The Oracle’s historical warning and the cold logic of The Briefcase (symbolizing colonial agenda) to the vibrant resilience of The Global Echo —G.P. meticulously connects 19th-century colonial carving to 21st- century global issues of inequality and systemic injustice. Integrating powerful spoken word, projection mapping of historical documents, and an original soundscape, the show amplifies marginalized African narratives. Moving beyond historical critique, G.P. culminates in a powerful and hopeful Call to Action, asserting that the true rhythm of unity and self-determination was never silenced. It is an urgent conversation on how the lines drawn long ago continue to define our world, urging collective action toward a more equitable future.
