I’m not beautiful, It’s just a phase is a dance performance that embodies both text and
musicality, with the guiding themes of beauty and authenticity. This performance questions the
beauty ideals that are considered the norm in our society.
We are trying to create a beautiful dance that falls short of standard beauty ideals, whilst
involving other ways that can help us experience beauty. By bringing certain elements together,
beauty goes beyond just the visual. But ultimately we want to ask: is beauty even necessary?
In this performance, the dancers go in search of answers to find alternative ways in which one
can express beauty and feel beautiful. But they also play with the counterweight: ugliness.
Could there be beauty in that too?
