An evening of two solos. Two dancers, two women’s bodies and two strong voices. 

Does my own body even belong to me? Is body just something I don’t own, something that’s become so distant that I don’t even know how to connect with it? In her dark seance GOOFY, Roni Chadesh asks deep questions about objectification, the male gaze and violence with a considerable dose of sarcasm. Brilliant yet bone-chilling, the performance offers a searing reflection of the world in which we live. 

My body belongs to me! A solo made of sticky gelatin and pink roses, dark moments and creepy faces. Eva Urbanová’s THE ESSENCE is a revelation of directness and artistic maturity. Through movement, she searches for a way out of a darkness full of doubts and prejudices. This elemental and meditative work set to the blue-violet music of Aid Kid.

The performance will be followed by a moderated discussion.
The performance is part of the BAZAAR festival.
