Central Europe Dance Company: Barbarians - -

26. Friday 19:30     Old Synagogue

The performance was inspired by Zsigmond Móricz's short story 'Barbarians.' It takes place on the frictional surface of two cultures. An archaic and a civilised world look each other steadily in the eyes. They show a mirror to each other, in which later on they will not be able to recognise themselves. For there exists no such language in which they could communicate and understand each other. But how could they, when on one side the need for language, the lack of proper means of verbal expression makes interaction, the flow of speech impossible. The other side is deaf to non-verbal 'speech' and does not even know its ABC. The looks and winces are quite telling, gestures and movements are loaded with meaning… The simultaneous representation of these two worlds, the staging of their referentiality, and that of the breakdown of their communication is an exciting challenge to a dance theatre.
