Description
An elaborately costumed dancer performs a tap dance ritual accompanied by a musician. Traversing a variety of locations and performing on surfaces le Flâneur directly and indirectly affects the public. Bells, horns and sirens attached to the performer enhance the unintentional encounters and encounter with those gathered to view the performance. The traditional way of travelling by foot has long been the mode of transportation for minstrels, vagabonds... and le flâneur. Flâneur derives from the Old Norse verb flana, which means 'to wander with no purpose »: a deliberately aimless pedestrian, unencumbered by any obligation or urgency'.Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.
