French multimedia performance troupe Systeme Castafiore makes its debut in Japan to perform Stand Alone Zone, a fantastical mélange of computer graphics, dance and music. Garbed in bizarre alien costumes, dancers simultaneously on stage and screen enter an “unknown zone,” a kind of futuristic universe that leads the viewer befuddled as to where the stage ends and a digitally conjured cyberworld begins. Formed in 1990, Systeme Castafiore takes its inspiration from the music and stage direction of Karl Biscuit and choreography of Marcia Barcellos.
