    The broken cafe
    (2007) McCann, Kelly Elizabeth; Monk, Davida
    This thesis focuses on the development of a choreographic work entitled The Broken Cafe, as supported by research in nonverbal communication, physical theatre, creative movement, and theatrical production. Using a limited movement vocabulary and specific elements of dance and theatre, the 30-minute duet The Broken Cafe brings together choreographic research and performance with relevant scholarship in sociology, dance, and theatre to develop a unique movement language for the stage. Relying on the moving body as the primary means of communication, I explore the theme of friendship, through an interpersonal relationship, as shaped by the nuance of expressive human movement.
