Language: English

A unique performance at the intersection of dance, theater and film. Figuring Age for the first time in Slovakia.

Their resilience, silence and trauma were written in their bodies and in their movement. Boglárka Börcsök’s performative installation will take you through a fictional encounter with three dancers aged 90 to 101 who were once part of the development of modern dance in Hungary. Based on recordings made in their private homes, this extraordinary performative work was created. In it, you will get a glimpse into how the dancers had to adapt and change their lives in order to survive the socio-political changes of the 20th century.

Supported using public funding by Slovak Arts Council and Bratislava City Foundation.

This performance will be presented twice on 16 May 2024. Check the event for the performance at 20:00.
