In the silent section we are using contact work to show the irritation and paranoia of the drug heroine. I am the person in the silent section who is going through the cold turkey. The other dancers are the causes of my reactions, the itch, the irritation. With the duet contact improvisation explores aspects of the cold turkey such as action vs reaction. For example, they correspond with what movement that I do and the pace of that I do the movement in. For instance, when I reach my hand downstage the duet reacted to my movement and corresponded with slowly reaching their hands towards me with a slower pace using the dynamics of smooth and slower. Then I pushes through the duets from the back of Ebony and Rosemary. I run through everyone using the change in dynamics. Through the speed of the movement being faster and the quality being more stronger and sharper. They follow me after I run exploring how I am trapped through the withdrawals of the drug(symptoms of the cold turkey). I am manipulated as the drug take over my body. This is represented through Ebony being the drug and me being the addict that feeds off her. I try to get free from the drug while Ebony is unable to. This is explored through me using gestural movement of reaching out towards the side and being able to find away to escape from the drug. Using the dynamics more by a slower pace and speed in the beginning of me and Ebony's duet. Ebony has more control of what I am doing. As she is leading me and I am following her.

Silent section extended
