“All that I left behind is here”, by Romuald Krężel, is a solo performance drawing from his personal and artistic experience. He focuses on different aspects of classism in the context of the performing arts by returning to his very first dance experience – a ballroom dance class, the only one offered for free in his primary school. By relearning and critically evoking movements, steps, poses and different styles of Cha-Cha-Cha, rumba, jive, and so on, Krężel examines his social background and its relations to his current choreographic practice. Ghostly figures and post-punk music echo and guide the audience through the return to Krężel’s past, culminating in a vulnerable conversation with his mother about class, body, work, shame and dance.
