Choreographed and performed by Geumhyung Jeong, this conference-performance blends video projection and sound to examine the uneasy relation between the human body and surrounding objects. Jeong revisits works from Homemade RC Toy (2019) to Under Construction (2024), sharing development anecdotes and reflections on robotics, installation and puppetry. By reworking gestures originally designed to animate objects and performing them without props, she exposes the body as material, using nudity and minimal staging to evoke ritual and altered agency.
Directed by Rebecca Stella and adapted with Danielle Barthélemy, Cendrillon blends classic fairy-tale drama with manga-inspired staging.

Anthony Surleraux’s video projections and graphics expand the tale’s visual world, pairing tradition with modern theatrical textures.
