“A production composed on the principle of counterpoint, where point is juxtaposed against point, note against note. It is in the moments of maximum musicality, in the multivoiced juxtaposition of scenes, where the points not only complement each other, but even collide, that it turns into total theatre for me. Many scenes that one experiences in reality are such total music. All we know is that someone is trying to tell someone something. There is a tension of paradox: I want to follow these simultaneous scenes, to understand them, but I can’t. And in fact – I ask myself, along with the creators – why do we need language as a means of communication if we can’t agree on basic things anyway, whether personal, social or global? The contrapuntal theatrical experiment makes higher demands on the viewer, but at the same time it appeals and entertains. And liberates,” writes theatre critic Juraj Šebesta.
The performance contains vulgarisms.
Dear visitors,
The leadership of the Ministry of Culture of the Slovak Republic is taking steps that are destroying Slovak culture! Their power interventions and changes in laws threaten our functioning as well as freedom and diversity of art. We protest against this course! The cultural centers associated in the Anténa network call on you, our audience, not to stay indifferent. We call on you to follow current events, visit our cultural spaces and discuss.
Stay with us and let’s fight together for free culture.
This project is financially supported by the Bratislava City Foundation and the Bratislava Old Town Municipality. The event was supported from public funds by the Slovak Arts Council and the Bratislava City Foundation.
