Exploring Contemporary Choreography through Speech Act Theory and Cultural Pillars: The Pledge 2.0
Abstract: This article delves into the innovative realm of choreographic research by integrating the Theory of Speech Acts and the national pillar Rukun Negara of Malaysia. The study presents a contemporary choreography titled The Pledge 2.0 that draws inspiration from the convergence of ideas stemming from interactions, brainstorming, and cultural contexts. By employing the Speech Act concept, the choreographers craft a performance piece that not only embodies unity but also addresses pressing societal issues. The article details the methodological approach, which is qualitative in nature, allowing the researchers to uncover movement patterns that resonate with established norms. This research sheds light on diverse choreographic methods and perspectives, providing audiences with a nuanced understanding of the ever - evolving dance landscape.
