“After the international success of FROCK Stopgap returns with their latest outdoor show RO-TES-រទេះ. Disabled artist Nadenh Poan makes his choreographic debut in collaboration with Stopgap’s diverse and world class dancers.
“Demonstrating the ability of the human body” **** The Guardian for GDIF
Nadenh grew up on a boat within the jungle of Cambodia. As a Disabled child he could swim before he could wheel. The first time he saw a RO-TES-រទេះ (Khmer for wagon) was the moment he realised he could move with the land too.
Inspired by his Cambodian heritage Nadenh reimagines his wheelchair as a place that can support more than just his body.
With groundbreaking innovation in wheelchair design, the diverse creatives of Stopgap will invent a new world of bold movement and irresistible rhythms. Audiences are invited to revel and follow this joyful celebration that represents progress, community, and Nadenh’s journey with his RO-TES-រទេះ.
Expect a celebration that will surprise and delight audiences of all ages.
Access: For visually impaired audiences a Touch Tour will begin 15 minutes before each performance and Audio Description is embedded in the soundtrack.
