Inspired by Yvonne Ng’s personal experiences, All That Is Between delves into how comfort is manifested at individual and institutional levels. The choreography weaves in elements of religious ritual, incorporating gestures that have been thoughtfully deconstructed, reconstructed, and ultimately reimagined to create a haunting resonance with the audience. These movements serve as raw expressions of loneliness and isolation, revealing the solace we seek in familiarity—whether in solitude or communion with others. Through this exploration, the work invites audiences to reflect on the profound connections that emerge from shared human experiences.

“Inspired by a transformative moment during a lengthy delay at Newark Airport, I became captivated by a young man’s quiet prayer ritual amidst the chaos around us. As he donned his prayer shawl and tefillin, a palpable calm rippled through the crowded terminal, illustrating the profound impact of individual stories on our collective experience. All That Is Between is a movement-based exploration of the tensions and strengths inherent in our identities, delving into the paradoxes of collective isolation and connection. Drawing from my multicultural upbringing in Singapore, I invite audiences to reflect on the power of movement as a medium for healing and understanding in a world often marked by dissonance.” – Yvonne Ng, Creator of All That Is Between
