Performance Info
Synopsis
People in the crowd who lose a sense of self hide themselves in obscurity, and exaggerate and simplify what they want to see and declare their freedom from responsibility. The process by which individuals are born into the crowd, and the process of initiating individuals into the crowd, is exciting, fearsome, and routine. There is a sense of cohesive unity and intimacy on the back of the intolerance and cruelty to others. MOB closely focuses on the two aspects of humanity, observing in detail the two subjects of human being and the individual in society.

The fandom legend of Korean modern dance ‘LDP’
Founded in 2001, LDP is an international dance project ultimately aimed at bringing Korea’s dance to the global stage. After its foundation, LDP has played the role in enhancing the value of the arts while leading the creation of a repertoire that emphasizes a deep artistic philosophy and communication with continuous experimental challenges based on differentiation and the style unique to LDP.
LDP’s dancers have over time earned the trust of the public through their endless efforts and sincerity, as well as their distinctive gifts and talents. It is the only ballet company in Korea whose name alone has earned the trust of the audience to expect a groundbreaking performance.
Reviews
"Mob, which opened the show, was a high energy, pulsating work, the cast ready for action in dark suits with sleeves rolled up. Choreographer, Dong-kyu Kim, who also mixed the musical score, explored the tension between the individual and the crowd. The virtuosity of the individual dancers was shown in break-out moments, but later absorbed into a fierce wall of powerful movement. It was a gripping work that managed to deliver its message." - Maggie Foyer/2017.11.21
