Little and big ones, join us on an adventurous journey into the world of dreams, where nothing is impossible! We'll take children, adults, and whole families into the realm of dreams and together peek beneath the veil of their magical mysteries and deep meanings.
Would you like to know the answers to questions like "How does dreaming work?" or "What does it actually mean?"
According to us, dreaming is like a journey into the depths of our selves and the factors that shape us as human beings. Dreams have inspired many myths and legends, including the choreographer of this production and artistic director of the Divadlo Štúdio tanca, Zebastián Méndez Marín.
The performance "Sen" (Dream) contrasts the world of wakefulness with the world of sleep through top-notch dance performances, a strong atmosphere, and humor. Alongside brilliant movement, you'll experience magical lighting design, playfully magical set design, and captivating music. Behind the set design and costumes is Ivana Macková: "We work with the concept that a dream is actually a modified reflection of reality. We float among the clouds or pedal on a magical wheel."
"The world of wakefulness and the world of dreams are just stories told by our minds. Can we shape our dreams during sleep, and can we change our reality while awake?" asks Zebastián Méndez Marín.
"Sen" is a performance primarily intended for children and families. The production features children who attend dance classes at the Divadlo Štúdio tanca. Working with domestic and international dance artists inspires, motivates, and spreads ideas of tolerance, understanding, and teamwork among children.
"Children can fully focus on the present activity and are not disturbed by what will be or what has been. They are the best players in life," says assistant choreographer and director Lívia Balážová MM.
Monika Kováčová took care of the dramaturgy assistance: "Each of us dreams – pleasant, frightening, bizarre, or unforgettable... – but have you ever dreamt in dance?"
The performance is suitable for children aged 5 and over and lasts 50 minutes.
