■ A Body in Motion, A Genre in Devotion
Through an ever-evolving mix of movement, music, and fashion rooted in dance,
Ambiguous Dance Company has continuously redefined the stage with its distinctive style.
Their works?sensational, daring, and wholly original?have shaped an identity of their own,
blurring boundaries until they’ve become a genre in themselves.
The Belt traces Ambiguous Dance Company’s own rhythm of time?
from the past to the present, and into what lies ahead.
On stage, you’ll come face to face with that rhythm?organic, charged, and in constant motion.

 

■ A Stage Unbound, A Flow Unwound
No flashy tricks. No special effects.
Only bodies, space, and sound?
fused into a raw, explosive force of energy.
As if sprinting alongside the dancers,
the audience is drawn into a state of pure immersion?
an electric rush of rhythm and dopamine.
Split into two parts, The Belt awakens every sense
and expands its own universe as it moves forward.
And in the end, the stage becomes yours.

 

■ From London’s Pulse to Seoul’s Stage
Premiered in London in September 2024,
The Belt is a co-production by Ambiguous Dance Company,
Producer Group DOT, and The Coronet Theatre.
With choreography and visual language that transcend genre, media, and space,
the work captivated London audiences and received 5-star reviews across the local press.
A finalist for the 2025 Offies Awards in Performance,
The Belt was praised for both its artistic depth and bold experimentation.
Now, its journey of sensation continues?on the Seoul stage.
