PLATEAU

PLATEAU

Theater ROZBARK | Kuźmiński / Bargetto

A FUSION OF DANCE AND THEATRE, AN OLD BUFFALO IN NEW BALLET SHOES, A WILD BOAR WITH WINGS! IT IS THE COMBINED WORK OF A (POLISH) CHOREOGRAPHER AND A (EMIGRANT) DIRECTOR – A HIGH WIRE BALANCING ACT OF COLLABORATION, WITH DEATH DEFYING LEAPS, AND (HOPEFULLY) LAUGHTER, AND HIGH ENTERTAINMENT!

BUT FIRST, WE HAVE TO WARN YOU, IT’S NOT ALL FUN AND GAMES.

WE LIVE IN VERY UNCERTAIN TIMES, THIS PLATEAU WE FIND OURSELVES ON TODAY IS MADE OF QUICKSAND AND TOMBSTONES! EVERYTHING WE ONCE HELD DEAR AND TRUE (OUR MORAL COMPASS, OUR SOLIDARITY) HAS BEEN CAUGHT IN THE GLOBAL TRADE WINDS AND THE ALL KNOWING (ALL SEEING) EYE OF ASOCIAL MEDIA.

OUR DEAR NATION HAS NEARLY SPLIT IN HALF WITH THE STRAIN, WE ARE SUSPICIOUS, WE HANG THE DOGS ON EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE, WE DABBLE IN CONSPIRACIES, WE SCAN THE HORIZON FOR A SAVIOR TO SHOW US THE WAY OUT.
