Q5 is a 70-minute long film inspired by the energy, feeling and expressiveness of Waacking; also known as Whacking or Punking. A dance form that emerged in the 1970s as an expression of oppression in the Latin and African-American LGBTQI+ underground clubs of Los Angeles. Through the sounds and movement language of Waacking, the 5 performers in the film dive into the 5th dimension. They explore different colors, portals, perspectives and worlds within worlds. All in search of the essence: The Quintessentials!
Sarada Sarita (1987) is a Dutch/Chilean dancer and choreographer. Sarada has become a pioneer in the Dutch dance scene: she was one of the first that brought voguing and waacking to the Netherlands. The past years she worked with companies like ISH and Het Nationale Ballet. In 2019, she won the prestigious BNG Bank Dansprijs with Christian Yav and Sedrig Verwoert. She has been an in-house maker at Korzo since 2021.
