Eiko Otake and Wen Hui on “What is War”
Writer Jenny Wu spoke with choreographers Eiko Otake and Wen Hui about their upcoming performance of “What is War” at Brooklyn Academy of Music, from October 21 to 25. Together, they discuss the inspiration and process of creating the work, war’s impact on the body and language, and being a bad student to be a good historian. “Skipping class is an important sign that you’ve started to make your own decisions,” Otake told Wu.
