'Would Would Not', Merlin Theater, 23 November |
 "Via negativa is an international project of contemporary performing arts, based in Ljubljana since 2002. Our fields of work are theatre and performance, with a focus on the connections between the two.We consider a theatre performance to be a relationship between the spectator and actor in real space and time. We deal with this relationship as a complex flow of points of view, expectations, judgments, conclusions, recognitions, stereotypes, fallacies, prejudices, tolerance or intolerance, knowledge or lack thereof; all these trigger various emotional, rational or irrational responses.
We are on stage in order to trigger this relationship and invent strategies with which to get the relationship’s dynamic running. We work with an actual presence, which is why communication is at the fore of this relationship, before aesthetics; points of view and thought before craft.
We feel we are most real when we touch upon something that can no longer be rationalized, when we no longer have to pretend to understand something we do not. We work as a collective in which each individual fights with his reasons, his body and courage, his imagination and mind, his skills and energy for his own sense and position on stage. This is why each performer in VN is also the author of his or her own performance." Source: merlinszinhaz.hu Address: 1052 Budapest, Gerlóczy utca 4.
