International  Symposium “From the Research to the Performance”

Do you know how to create a performance out of an experience with the unknown? What intuitive artistic research is and how it can inspire a human body on the stage? What is the path that goes from an authentic life experience to a highly aestheticized gesture? What unexpected impulses can be used for creating of a theatrical situation? Come to peep into the kitchen of significant physical theatre creators and visit The Farm in the Cave International Symposium.

Jozef Fruček (Greece-Slovakia), choreographer and director of RootLessRoot Company, will speak about ways he builds up his performances. Kristina Mogilnicka (Poland)and Viliam Dočolomanský (Czech-Slovakia) will uncover some extracts of materials that Farm in the Cave has gained during researches in Brazil and Brussels.

The symposium will be concluded by Hungarian theatrologist Attila Szabó. It will be opened and moderated by Jana Návratová.
