Can a club be considered an entire habitat of diversity? According with their own poetry of the “unity in the raveology” and crossing it with the power of the traditional elements of the ball groups, Mara Oscar Cassiani co-creates a group dance with a crew from Santarcangelo. It is a way to celebrate identities and diversity: the group dance becomes the tuner and the choreographic sign of union of our stories and bodies. We will dance together again!
Be Water, My Friends is one of the fieldworks hosted by Santarcangelo Festival. The project was presented during the International Assembly III in Ghent, Belgium and International Assembly IV in Riga, Latvia.

No matter how different you are, We are a whole habitat of diversity.
Danced by the wind, touched by the water, fed by the clouds.
We will wear many different colors and live together in the same dance.
Maybe, We can move without you, but we can dance better with you.
Crossing the paths, sharing our stems,
Danced by the wind, touched by the water, fed by the clouds.
Hugged by a leaf, touched by the bees, danced by the drops, watched by the sky, we’ll look extra fly
We will be Water, We will be River, We will be the same Dance.
We may have no Shape, but we may also have the same Shape.
We will be Different, but we will also be Equal.
We will be separated, but we will be united.
If you put the water in a cup, the water becomes the cup.
If you put the water in a cup, the water becomes the cup.
If you put the water into a dance, the water becomes a dance.
Water can flow, Water can split. Be Water, My friends.
