Rachid Ouramdane was born in France with Algerian origins; and as an adult, he explores this hybrid identity through dance. Far..., Ouramdane's new piece at Dance Theater Workshop, poignantly dissects the relationship between the colonizer and colonized, the racial outsider and the passport-holding insider. The piece follows his father's career as a French soldier during the occupation of Algeria, through the Vietnam War. Fifty years later, Rachid dances through his father's journey with the repressed rage of a lifelong soldier.
