Dance Theatre Premiere

The premiere of Nagyvárad Ensemble's new performance, Barbarians, inspired by Zsigmond Móricz's short story of the same title, is getting closer. The premiere will take place on the 10th of March, at 7 pm, on the big stage of Szigligeti Theatre. Szigligeti Ede season tickets are valid.

From a dramaturgical point of view, Móricz's short story is very similar to Greek drama: its typical character portrayals and relationships serve as a great base for a dance theatre adaptation. How can a man, originally created to be good, conquer his instincts? Can we transcend our instincts at all? What does a holiday mean today? Can grief be a celebration? What is the most cruel consequence of our sins? These are the questions our play seeks answers for, while trying to create a musical world that brings back those ancient times when musician and dancer were engaged in a very special dialogue.

Creating the music for the performance was the task of composer Tibor Cári, at his second collaboration with Nagyvárad Ensemble, after Collisions. Tickets are available at the booking office of Szigligeti Theatre, or online, at www.biletmaster.ro.
